Reinstating the Fairness Doctrine will keep the airwaves more balanced
I actually had to email this statist loon:

Dear Gene,


Donahue's ratings were horrendous.

Left-tilt opinions are dominant everywhere but talk radio -- major newspapers, the major networks... do you think we should demand "fairness" at the NYTimes? (Hey, how about at the teachers' unions, while we're at it?)

The reason talk radio is so popular is because there is a huge demand for it. People are starving for their side, i.e. people who actually love their country, to be heard.

Here's a Milton Friedman quote, the bolded part is the most pertinent (although it all is):

" What most people really object to when they object to a free market is that it is so hard for them to shape it to their own will. The market gives people what the people want instead of what other people think they ought to want. At the bottom of many criticisms of the market economy is really lack of belief in freedom itself. The essence of political freedom is the absence of coercion of one man by his fellow men."


Best to you,
~Anna
