Overview

Freedom of speech. It is our most cherished privilege as Americans, guaranteed by the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution since 1791.

But our current presidential administration threatens to sharply curtail or silence altogether the freedom of expression that distinguishes America from the average dictatorship. What is under direct attack? Conservative talk radio.

During the Reagan administration, conservative talk radio burgeoned when the FCC voted to stop enforcing the Fairness Doctrine, which required all licensed broadcasters to present "balanced" viewpoints on controversial issues. The format was a smash hit, attracting an estimated 50 million listeners weekly. Popular, profitable, outspoken, powerful, influential—it’s what the American people wanted, and its success was the Democrats' worst nightmare.

Now, the principles underlying the Fairness Doctrine threaten to be reinstated. Under cover of being "fair," they will be used as a means of censorship, allowing government to influence who owns our airwaves and thus controls the content, a mandate with far-reaching implications for all media—indeed, for freedom of speech for all Americans.

    The Threat to Silence Talk Radio

    Brian Jennings, along with many others like Glenn Beck, Sean Hannity, and Rush Limbaugh have been speaking about the dangers of large government. Just like Reagan had stated earlier, "Government is not the solution to our problems, Government is the problem." Now, the government wants to expand its grasp on the United States and destroy or at least control the freedoms of the people (epspecially the Republican Talk Radio). They speak on how the government is trying to destroy our liberties and what we as citizens can do against the expanding power of the government.

    threat to talk radio

    "censorship" is a very well researched bestseller about the fairness doctrine about how certain democract lawmakers are trying to silence conservative talk radio or try and run their commentery a political agenda instead of the way the radio or tv station wants to run the way it wants to. this is a very intresting book it showed me how certain politicans are trying to tear up the constitution which they swore to uphold. freedom of speech is what our soldiers stood up for and fought for and weather you agree or disagree with a station or paper it should not be censored this book shows how our politicans are ruining the constitution which they swore an oath to.

    Censorship -- Threat to Silence Talk Radio

    If you are a fan of conservative talk radio or if you are an American that places a lot of value in our first amendment right -- then you will want to take the time to read this book. This book talks about the history of the Fairness Doctrine and why it was lifted, the birth of conservative talk radio, what makes them the highest rated programs, and what threatens it now. Keep informed -- read this book.

    I never really knew much about the Fairness Doctrine

    This was a very informative read. I actually learned something that wasn't regurgitated, or otherwise recycled information! The subject captured me until the very end. I was just out of High School when the Fairness Doctrine was eliminated, so that whole time beforehand was a blur to me and I didn't have the foggiest idea of what it was until just a few years ago (I graduated in '85. I'm now 43 yrs old).
