And the tapes are screened prior to airing, said general manager Jared Lapin, 21, a senior from Larchmont, Westchester County.

1. Like all Bushevik Organiations, the FCC, once designed to protect us

from being taken over by Nazi-style Totalitarian Media, is now itself an instrument used to strongly pursue that same end.

In Totalitarian Socieies like Imperial Amerika, that which says it protects, victimizes.

Bushevik FCC no different from the rest.
