Ok riddle me this? Who decides whats liberal and what's Conservative?
That my friends is the slippery slope that this country is on should the fairness doctrine return.

Parents in a town in CT tried to have Harry potter books banned from local schools because they promoted witchcraft and Satanism.. Remember when Twain's Huck Finn was going to be stricken from librarys because it used the "N" word.

Cold hard fact:
Here in Connecticut, the big station carry's Rush then after that a local personality Colin McEnroe, who is very left leaning comes on (Edit: Colin was canned after many years. Didn't bring enough listener$ apparently).
Who will decide if Colin was liberal enough to offset Rush?

Also I don't know if this has been said but the Fairness Doctorine only applies to Radio. Not print or Television.
