Sen. DeMint on radio censorship and fairness doctrine
By Suzia van Swol, University of New Mexico-Talk Radio News Service
During a press briefing on the fairness doctrine, Senator Jim DeMint (R-S.C.) says that,
“we can celebrate a victory of sorts today, after taking a message to the American people about radio censorship, the potential of muzzling radio talk show hosts, we were able to force a vote this week on the broadcasters freedom act that would bar the FCC (Federal Communications Commission) from bringing up what is misnamed the fairness doctrine.”
