Just as Eileen McGann and I predicted in our book, Fleeced, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) is pushing an amendment in Congress that would require the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to “take actions to encourage and promote diversity in communication media ownership and to ensure that broadcast station licenses are used in the public interest,” according to CBS news.
This measure is far more dangerous than the Fairness Doctrine, since it goes not only to programming but to the personnel a station employs, the members of its board and its ownership structure. Pelosi is trying not to muzzle talk radio but to take it over!

Think of it as a cost savings. If Speaker Pelosi can take over talk radio then she could request the cheaper AirForce jet for her weekend trips. Without talk radio, the ground crews would not know to look disappointed if they made eye contact with our deserving, prestigious Speaker who works coast to coast indefatigably for our good.
