"But that's not even remotely relevant to the discussion I was having with whoever it was. (It's been a long day, and I just don't remember.) He said that "the left" wants to silence conservative broadcasters. I said I was aware of no such movement among "the left."

Since the FCC rescinded the Fairness Doctrine in 1987, it could hardly be germane to that discussion."
