Reagan killed Fairness in Media and the middle class along with it.

Who defines fairness? The democrats? Hillary Clinton? Supreme Court? The voters?


I'd rather go with....FREE SPEECH. Government keeps out of the entire area.

Citizens United gave that to the one who has the best propaganda machine.

You might want to edit/correct the names and timelines

Has anyone noticed that Ronald Wilson Reagan also works out to 666, the number of the Beast?

If you want a counter to Fox, pick up your remote and turn to CNN.

Quit trying to have the government fix your laziness.

Stop making such simple sense.

I regret that people mostly seem to use media to fit a bias, which seems to increase bias, but it is their choice, not mine.

Nothing happens at the FCC regarding phones without the instigation of the industry.

Do you have any clue about how much more money the baby bells make off of cell phones? You speak of a time when houses had one landline. Now they have cells, internet and tv and their landlines. That was no accident. DH knew in 1990 landlines would be a thing of the past and we would all have Dick Tracy communicators.

And yeah, Al Gore was instrumental in making the internet available in all American homes.

Without competition, the Bells had no incentive to diversify their equipment. Deregulation forced the Bells to compete with emerging technologies and open up their networks to competitors.
