That Reid and Pelosi (and others on the Left) want to reinstitute the Fairness Doctrine in order to stifle the free speech of Limbaugh and Hannity?

How does the fairness doctrine stifle Hannity?

This presumes a lot facts that aren't "in evidence". Most of the people who listen to Limbaugh do so because they agree with him. He is preaching to the choir. He isn't converting anyone.....

That's called rationalization...the man adds nothing that is positive to anything but his bank accounts.

What is amusing is that many in the wingnut echo chamber have been frothing over this, yet no legislation has ever been proposed. It makes you wonder exactly how strong support for a new Fairness Doctrine there is and how much is just imaginations running wild.
