The Media: Five things the Dem's must do after taking back the White House
Reposted from The Media Forum:
1. Roll back the rules that allowed for the media takeover by a few large corporations. 2. Bring back and enforce the Fairness Doctrine. 3. Don't have a short memory. Are you listening Charles Gibson and George Stephanopoulous? 4. Don't let the corporate media continue to frame the issues. 5. Force the media to allow free time for all legitimate candidates as a prerequisite to holding on to their government sponsored monopoly of the airwaves. The media should not be enriched by our electoral process.
3. Prosecute anyone who calls on their listeners to riot
or disrupt the political process. That isn't infringing on freedom of speech. Inciting a riot or encouraging people to break the law is an offense that can be prosecuted.
