Facebook Founder Hosts Obama – Gives Unprecedented Access to 500,000,000 Facebook Members Worldwide
But Now You Can Demand They Give Us Equal Time!
Dear Freedom-Loving American,

In a long-standing and obviously wise tradition, American media companies give “equal time” to both major political parties. The practice requiring equal time makes sure those who control our public airwaves don't abuse their monopoly.

Sadly, it looks like Barack Obama has found a temporary way around that tradition by co-opting another virtual monopoly, Facebook, into giving him top — and exclusive — billing.

On Wednesday, April 20, 2011, in an appalling and dangerous abuse of Facebook's dominance of the Internet, the powerful liberal icon Mark Zuckerberg, CEO of Facebook, very publicly threw his weight behind the President. He hosted A COZY TOWN HALL AVAILABLE TO AMERICA'S 150 MILLION FACEBOOK MEMBERS, including millions of the young voters who helped Obama raise $750 million online vs. McCain's $370 million in 2008. (And remember, Facebook co-founder Chris Hughes helped lead that campaign.)

But we can fight back now, insisting that Facebook provide equal access to the eventual Republican nominee. And you can help…

The editors of HUMAN EVENTS and RedState have created a petition demanding that Zuckerberg pledge to host our eventual Republican nominee in a Town Hall Meeting identical to Obama's.

Please sign it RIGHT NOW — then send this email to every freedom-loving conservative you know. It's truly urgent.

Yours for Freedom,

Editors of HUMAN EVENTS and RedState.com

1. lol. facebook = private company, isn't the winger line that private companies don't have to

provide "equal time"?

i believe that was one of the talking points in taking down the fairness doctrine.
