Murder you say? Ok! Let's ban all the US Mosques then, because they are used to tell people to MURDER people in the ME! See this can go both ways, what I'm saying is just as ridiculous as what you are saying. How does something that happened in another country have ANY bearing on anything here? It's ALL about censorship, that's just the way you nasty Lefties roll.

I find it ironic that Georgy Schwartz (aka George Soros) came to the United States after surviving the Nazi puppet state of Miklos Horthy only to turn into a tyrannical peice of fecal matter himself ... the only difference being that he is far left instead of far right.

The day he dies will be one of the greatest days for mankind. It can't come soon enough.

Sure, and lets ban all christian churches because the KKK is a christian organization that has been behind murders and lynchings for decades and decades. Oh and don't forget those christian child molesters popping up all the time from the church,...
Anyhow read the facts on the story, it has nothing to do with "oooh oooh! Soros! Beck says he's SpppOOOOoooOky!" censorship like the right wing propaganda ministers are trying to spread, but because of Murdoch's ties to numerous illegal activities.

No wonder mr.soros dis not buy FOX. He was not involved at all. Maybe he should. I am certain it would still make a profit even if the RW propogandists were fired. This would be a great way to install a reeducation campaign without the listeners noticing.

You do know that Mr. Soros is a philanthropist that heavy railed against human rights abuses. Soros has given nearly $5bn to oppose dictators in Africa, Asia and the former Soviet bloc.

It's ironic that in a thread supposing to support free-speech you want to silence Soros (permanently.) It's clear that conservatives don't support free-speech -- only conservative free-speech.

It's about illegal business practices.
They are ignoring the point, as they do so often, because it doesn't fit with their agenda.
Of course, if the shoe were on the other foot, they would be calling for criminal investigations, immediate suspension of all licenses...

Wouldn't that be a kick in the butt?

Seriously, I wonder how long it will be before Murdoch and Co. has to start shopping around their U.S. holdings to pay their UK fines.

I like the way we do it in Canada. If you are a news broadcaster youare required to broadcast. "The truth". If you do not, you won't be broadcasting anything at all because your permit will be cancelled.
We have very through news stations here and they can reflect right or left as they see to but if you watch all of them over the course of a particular story you will notice the FACTS are the same. If you want to put a left or right spin on those facts then that's your right to do so.

Because that's the way it works here FOX has no Canadian stations in the country because they LIE constantly. THEY MISREPRESENT THE TRUTH IN EVERY SINGLE STORY THEY COVER. That is just not allowable here and I hope it will stay that way.

Canada knows how to do it I would love to see FCC regulations put in place banning the use of the word "news" unless they are actually presenting factual, unbiased news, and a warning before shows that don't letting people know what you are about to watch is non-factual, biased, and should be considered for entertainment purposes only.

Though that really tells you something that fox lies so much, they're not even allowed on the airwaves
