The  DANGER from one party control of the dominant media is not that conservatives will be unable to find information. 

The DANGER is that a misinformed public will act on incorrect or a lack of correct information.

It's really hard to argue with that, but I find the choice of weapon under discussion to do something about it very dubious.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.

At this point i'm ready to say  "F*** controlling it.   Just burn the whole sonnofab*tch down. "   Kill Television in total,  and let people get their news from newspapers.   

Like WaPo and the NYT? Maybe the National Enquirer?

Or print magazines like:
AARP Magazine
Costco Connection
Game Informer
Better Homes and Gardens
Reader's Digest (Best digested in the back of the dirty book store)
Good Housekeeping
National Geographic
Family Circle
People
Woman's Day

(Those are the top ten, based on issues distributed, (in order from most to least) in print magazines).
http://www.therichest.com/business/the-top-ten-best-selling-magazines-in-the-united-states/

With the complete conversion to alarmist warmist nonsense in National Geographic, there isn't a lot there for a conservative to go on, although Reader's Digest used to be fairly conservative (I haven't seen one in a couple of decades, I think the Mail Mule eats them).

Government didn't create the electromagnetic spectrum, it licensed it.

Demand Conservative TeeVee and it will happen, but you need to abandon the Liberal Teevee first. I think the niche is open since Fox shifted a little to leftward.

Unless you think ideology must be imposed by force, let ideas compete in the marketplace. You sound like a liberal wanting to shut down Conservative talk radio. Face it though, TV lends itself to liberals who sit on their arses and watch it. Radio appeals to Conservatives who are likely to be doing something and need to keep their eyes on that while they can listen to the radio. It is the fundamental reason for the media disparity.

Yeah, but didn't you see that 36% of households get the MSM channels in their living rooms?  You know how you fix that?  The gov't should impose required watching/listening times over a variety of channels.


When you have devolved to mockery,  you are unable to put forth a real argument.   

Demanding that both sides have access to the people is not tantamount to the government forcing people to watch something.   


In the candidates debates,   I assume you would think it ridiculous if we had a "debate"  where only the Democrat candidate was allowed to speak.   

Well I've got news for you.   With the media,  Every freaking day is a political debate with the Opposition putting forth their points,  and occasionally one of their pet monkeys claiming to be on our side offering up a weak pathetic rebuttal if any sort of rebuttal is allowed at all.

Regulating bakers - bad.  Regulating newspapers - good.


Someone pulled a dishonest switcheroo on something I said earlier.   I said "Music"  they switched the word to "entertainment". 


I don't think any discussion of newspapers has been advanced by anyone so far.   I have consistently spoken of the Television broadcasting monopoly created by the Government and under the control of left wing interests.   

I think everyone else is also on this same page,   but now you assert we are trying to regulate "newspapers."   


Dishonest.  Very dishonest.

In 1963, Smith took his act to the border when the Inter-American Radio Advertising's Ramon Bosquez hired him and sent him to the studio and transmitter site of XERF-AM at Ciudad Acuña in Mexico, a station whose high-powered border blaster signal could be picked up across much of the United States. In an interview with writer Tom Miller, Smith described the reach of the XERF signal: "We had the most powerful signal in North America. Birds dropped dead when they flew too close to the tower. A car driving from New York to L.A. would never lose the station."[5] Most of the border stations broadcast at 250,000 watts, five times the U.S. limit, meaning that their signals were picked up all over North America, and at night as far away as Europe and the Soviet Union. It was at XERF that Smith developed his signature style (with phrases like "Who's this on the Wolfman telephone?") and widespread fame.

That inevitably means a federally designated arbiter of truth.


Requiring the media to reflect the political makeup of the public at large constitutes a "federally designated arbiter of truth"?   


How does it do that?     We accept the premise for Blacks and Women.   Why is it such a far stretch to demand equal representation for Conservatives?    Why should the media be permitted to employ 95% Liberals and 5% Libertarians?   

Conservatives make up 40% (or more)  of the populace,  and without discrimination, they would make up 40% of the broadcasting system staff.   

If Affirmative Action laws were used to accomplish this result,  would this somehow make the Federal Government the "Arbiter of Truth"? 


Not suggesting this is the only way to break the log jam,  just pointing out that this is one possible way to do it without creating a government ministry of truth. 


It disproves the theory that a "ministry of truth"  is necessary.

No one said it wasn't. As I tried to point out earlier, though, I'd expect Conservative media to do better on Radio, because radio does not require a person to be looking at a screen. You can listen while doing other things. Television wants all your attention, as a medium, and that is incompatible with doing ahything but watching.

Print, aside from the interwebs, is a mess, but so much of what passes for writing in a newspaper should have been left on the bathroom wall or in the margins of someone's coloring book that it is seldom worth the price of admission. Assuredly, Conservatives have our good writers who could easily rival the drivel in Time and Newsweek. 

The Liberals have been building their media empire since the advent of television, and far longer in print. Once there was a difference between Huntley and Brinkley and that Cronkite fellow, but now the same story is used with the same talking points and the same phraseology across the spectrum--the only question is what face you want to see it pour out of, or what 'rack' you are looking at when it does--because that is about all the difference.
So it will take a new angle to build a Conservative media if you want TV, but I probably would not start in markets that are used to and in love with the coastal urban liberal media. That doesn't mean RFD TV, but something from a smaller town, with a little more blue collar attitude might play very well because people would be better able to identify with it than East/West Coast big city.

But then I could be wrong, too.
