The Federal Election Commission needs you...
to submit your comments TODAY regarding our rights to political speech.*RedState.org has all the details. Some comments from the "reform" group: "Finally, we do not believe anyone described as a "blogger" is by definition entitled to the benefit of the press exemption. An individual writing material for distribution on the Internet may or may not be a press entity. While some bloggers may provide a function very similar to more classic media activities, and thus could reasonably be said to fall within the exemption, others surely do not . The test here should be the same test that the Commission has applied in other contexts - is the entity a "press entity" and is it acting in its "legitimate press function"?" Follow RedState's links and do you part to keep our first amemndment rights. *I just wanted to note that this posting is from me personally and may not necessarily reflect the editorial view of Rantburg or Fred Pruitt.
