The most effective means of market control is the market itself. If people don't like what they hear on the radio, they will change the channel. No listeners means low Arbitron ratings, which decreases ad revenue. When the disliked radio personality fails to earn the station money, the personality will be cut from the lineup.

Q. Why do right-wing radio hosts almost never lose their jobs then ?
A. Supply and demand.

The truth is right-sided perspective and commentary in the media as a whole is so rare that when it appears it takes a much more massive amount of marketshare in relation because the outlets are so few.

I would expect more then just a few lawsuits to come out if they play this card against Rush and Talk Radio. Then expect it to go all the way to the SCOTUS 

I agree.  I don't know how the original fairness doctrine survide Constitution scrutiny.

It flys in the face of the 1st Amendment concerning Freedom of Speech.

Who here doubts that Rush would lay every dime he has out there to fight?

I don't.

I do not either. He's the biggest target for this and he has the biggest audience. It was probably no small wonder that he got the pay raise he did last year.

Moonbat radio fails because it'd be a 3 hour bitchfest of why socialism is good for America and also.. they don't take callers that may disagree with them. They'd have a hard time debating facts and reason with endless whining.
