It has nothing to do with my being annoyed by the vicious prattle..it has to do with people being worked into a froth of hate, that will result in murder. Like the killing at the holocaust museum, the murder of the abortion provider, the letting loose of gunfire in the church a few months ago. When people are being lied to, and encouraged to hate, there are consequences. And no, the Fairness Doctrine, was designed to fail. It was stupid. Banning the spewing of lies and hate, and not allowing corporate power over most of the media, yes, I am for that.
