    Masquerading as “news” while blatantly spewing out whatever toxic and dangerous, insurrectionary bullshit you make up day by day to a community - knowing full well it is bullshit - should and MUST have serious, or at the very least expensive, consequences.

        To think where we could be if Reagan hadn’t of torn down The Fairness Doctrine.

        @Ganondorf the fairness doctrine was only for broadcast media, the FCC was able to regulate it because it used public bandwidth. It wouldn’t have applied here. We’d need different regulation.
