Welcome to my world, population: 100 squirrels and a nut. All opinions and advocacies are 100% my own. I’m not for everyone, and I’m still learning. If that doesn’t suit you, move along. 'Nuff said.

Gee, isn’t that exactly what I said my elected representative told me? Thanks for the help in proving my point. I’m not sure it was needed, though.

The Supreme Court just ruled that lawmakers don’t know everything. Thus is your specious argument disposed. That said, it doesn’t change the fact that lawmakers have no stomach to make broadcasters tell only the truth.

She’s not wrong. The Fairness Doctrine put pressure on broadcasters to provide factual information. Remember who did away with the Fairness Doctrine?

I actually wrote to my Senators a few years back and asked for a law like this, modeled after Canadian broadcast law. I was told it would never pass because it would be seen as violating the First Amendment.

"Nobody used to think men exploiting women was wrong" is up there with "Nobody used to think slavery was wrong" as a really impressive giveaway of who you think counts as "nobody".

More like the “cannons” of jurisprudence at this point. Wouldn’t it be funny if President Biden used his newfound executive immunity to dismiss, en masse, the entirety of SCOTUS? (He won’t, of course, but it would be funny.)
