Ferris Bueller: I don't consider free speech free, if it is used to spread hate and fear. The ideology behind free speech was on people being Ladies and Gentlemen and of people having honour.

Andrew Breitbart from what I've seen is neither a gentleman or honourable. Those that are.. ought to have redress available without lengthy court proceedings.

(V):   They'll know just where the line is, circumvent it, push the envelope, but not go over.  Besides, the current court system here would consider such regulation to be a violation of free speech.  But, I agree w/ u, there probably should be abridement to hate speech.

Ferris Bueller: Maybe you need some UK style regulation. Sometimes here a channel over steps the mark. If the complaint to the regulators is upheld then the channel has to broadcast an apology.

Temo: Re:
Tuesday:   Believe me, I can understand the temptation to get some of those wackos off the air.  It hit very close to home with me when the Unitarian church in TN was shot up a couple of years back.  The perpetrator justified his actions by claiming it was his duty to kill liberals.  His home was full of propaganda from people like Limbaugh, Beck and other right wing idealogues.  I'm a member of this denomination in SC.  The minister in TN formerly was our minister.  I, therefore, have nothing but contempt for what these types represent and their rhetoric.  But, I've seen people on the left blogisphere who can be scary also.  I'm not sure how healthy all of this so called 24/7 news cycle really is, but I'll admit, I don't have many answers except to turn off the TV.

Fox is irresponsible & they play on people's fears.  However, this time I agree with Dan.  Pulling their license only opens the floodgates to censorship.

Temo: Re:
Tuesday: Since you can't name a single riot, it's fair to say that you made a false statement.

It's fine if one disagrees with Fox. But the left is currently falsely accusing Fox of being racist (they love playing that card - but that's because they can't beat Fox honestly). Disagree, but don't lower yourself to making false claims.

Democrat Senator Seeks To Shut Down Talk Radio (video)

This sort of thing should frighten you on the Left.  If the Left can do it, what will you say when the Conservatives retake power (and they will) and they do it to liberal talk radio/blogs/tv/cable etc.

Tuesday: That's what the left is trying to do. It's not the first time. Here's a sample:

CNN Anchor to Shirley Sherrod: Would you like to see [Andrew Breitbart's] site to be shut down?
Shirley Sherrod: “That would be a great thing. Because I don’t see how that advances us in this country.”

Jonathan Zasloff, a law professor at UCLA on JournoList: “I hate to open this can of worms,” he wrote, “but is there any reason why the FCC couldn’t simply pull [Fox's'] broadcasting permit once it expires?”

What would you on the left say to a concerted effort, on the part of the Right, to pass legislation that shuts down far left leaning blogs, cable, and networks?

Being a Leftist sucks when it comes to political debate. You really only have two choices to try and convince others that your progressive ideas and values aren’t toxic, and that’s emotionalism, lies, or both.
