3. Was the Media "Fairness" caucus concerned about the 24/7 Teabagging Obama Bash put on by Fox?

Didn't think so. Fox News should be redefined as a 24hr Pac media buy for the Republican Party. Let's look in as Sean Hannity gives Dick Cheney a backrub while asking "Is Obama making us safe?"

6. and the "liberal media" won't remember the week-long lovefests that Clear Channel had

at least twice at the White House, once definitely in 2004 ... they got unprecedented access then, and mega publicity for their people ...

Kinda reminds me of the WWE ... one time, to hype their upcoming PPV, they said that the rasslin' title match was going to be held, "for the first time!", in a cage ... not letting their fans in on the fact that, 20 years before, Bruno Sammartino and Larry Zbyszko had done so ...

Vince McMahon must have single-handedly provided the mentality for today's true believers in all things Repugniconvict ...

4. Oh, good. Then they are ready to bring back the Fairness Doctrine?

Didn't think so. That would put their radio and TV hatemongers right out of business.

5. As if they wouldn't have loved it if ABC did this during the run up to the Iraq war. Hypocrites.

7. You nailed it! ABC provided an uncritical platform for the pro-invasion message.

ABC also aired the inflammatory Road to 9/11.

Bottom line, ABC owes the American People exclusive time devoted to something good for them instead of evil and destructive.
