Quote :: In "Forget the Fairness Doctrine,"
Lloyd writes that conservative radio stations have abonded the bottom
line as their primary motivator, and are purely ideological organs. He
argues, however, that ressurecting the Fairness Doctrine, which forced
radio and television stations to give equal time to opposing
viewpoints, is not the answer. He does, however, suggest the private
radio broadcasters, due to the fact that they use public airwaves,
should be required to donate and support public radio.

Quote :: The FCC Chief Diversity Officer is seeking to punish conservative radio
broadcasters to increase the funding for NPR (Nitwit Public Radio)
based on the surprise findings that 91% of talk radio programming is
conservative and 9% is progressive (New word for Socialist)."

Mark Lloyd was appointed by Julius Genachowski who was appointed by Pres. BO

Quote :: Obama has tapped Julius Genachowski to head the FCC.
President-elect
Barack Obama plans to nominate Julius Genachowski, Obama's chief
campaign technology adviser, as chairman of the Federal Communications
Commission, according to a number of media reports.
[snip]
During
the campaign, Genachowski promoted a detailed technology and innovation
plan that supports net neutrality protections, expansion of affordable
broadband and media-ownership rules that encourage more diversity.
[snip]
If
confirmed by the U.S. Senate, Genachowski will take the reigns of the
nation's top telecommunications regulatory agency at a time when
network neutrality is a hotly debated topic and with the nation facing
a Feb. 17 deadline for the digital television transition.

Quote :: The Capital Research Center, a non-partisan, non-profit group whose
mission is to act as a watchdog over other non-profit groups, presented
a quite extensive exposé last November of the founding, funding and
activities of ACORN. This shocking report shows a well-funded group
grounded in Marxist ideology and gangland-style tactics, whose
self-proclaimed mission is none other than the destruction of
capitalism in America. Vital to their success is the suppression of
free speech. The framework for the attempt by Democrats to
silence political opposition is already in place in what the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC) calls localism, a scheme set up in the
form of local “community boards” that will decide whether or not your
local broadcast station is meeting the standards required to review and
renew their broadcast licenses every two to four years. As you
can see from the FCC localism webpage, localism regulations have
already been through well over a year’s worth of procedural hearings,
and, as of April 2008, “Broadcast Information Specialists are Available
for Public Inquires.” The rules and regulations have been set forth in
“The Public and Broadcasting,” which is the FCC field manual for the
ACORN “activists” and lawyers to intimidate your local community boards
into harassing your local radio stations into submission or recommend
the revocation of their broadcast license. Given the reported $4.2
billion allocated for ACORN and like groups by the so-called stimulus
bill signed into law by Obama yesterday, all that is left to fulfill
this scenario is the confirmation of Obama’s new FCC chairman, nominee
Julius Genachowski. After he’s confirmed, the full frontal assault on
our First Amendment rights will begin quickly. ACORN’s own website proudly displays their intent: II. Make the mainstream media accessible and accountable to low- and moderate-income people. A. Reinstate the Fairness Doctrine in broadcasting, so that grass roots
community groups have equal time to express their views. B. Require
cable TV companies to make good on their promises to allow community
groups access to air time, or revoke their operating licenses. Membership
on the local board is a key to the ACORN’s plan: activists on state and
local boards can give their national agenda support that can’t be
obtained elsewhere. “Diversity” and “underserved communities” are their
mantra. The plan is for the boards to control the content of stations
with their ability to make licensing renewal recommendations to the
FCC. We all know how intolerant the left is of any ideas other than
their own -- just look how any conservative speaker is treated by the
left when they speak at any college campus around the country today.

It sounds like conservative talk radio is going to take a hard hit from the appointment of Mark Lloyd. I also wonder how this will affect Christian radio programming, which of course would never air the opposing viewpoint. The progressives already control the major media outlets, so it's just a matter of time before they try to shut down talk radio!
