Democrats Trying To Ban Fox News Using FEC
2016-09-30
[CITIZEN-ACTION] The Democrats have a strong hold on the media and now they just want to get rid of the competition all together. The top ranking Democrats on the Federal Election Commission are trying to set the stage to stop companies with foreign investors from covering American politics.

Fox News is the only major cable network that has more than 5% ownership from foreign investors. The decision would also hurt the Wall Street Journal and the New York Times
...which still proudly displays Walter Duranty's Pulitzer prize...
The ban would keep the news agencies "from funding expenditures, independent expenditures, or electioneering communications."

The ban would mean that the only major conservative leaning news outlet in America would be banned from talking about politics.

If this happens, then more liberal news outlets like CNN, MSNBC, CBS, NBC and ABC would continue to operate as normal. The only views you would get in the media would be liberal views.

We already know that Obama is turning over the Internet in an irreversible action to an international group and now they want to completely eliminate Republican views from television.

So far in this election the media has showed its bias, but so has Facebook and Google. Both of the Internet giants have been caught censoring information on Hillary Clinton
... sometimes described as The Heroine of Tuzla and at other times as Mrs. Bill, never as Another John Quincy Adams ...
while promoting negative information on Trump.

As of right now, the Democrats are laying the groundwork needed to have complete control over the media, and it doesn’t seem like anyone is stopping them.

#8  Fox news is weak tea. It boggles the mind that even such a minor deviation from the party line causes such consternation among the Left.

#4  Fox news is weak tea. It boggles the mind that even such a minor deviation from the party line causes such consternation among the Left. One is reminded of the 30's Bolsheviks.

#1  The Democrats are Stalinist totalitarians, through and through. They want the same relationship with U.S. news media that the Communist Party of the Soviet Union had with Pravda and Izvestia: total control of the news.

If they could have things their way, they would make criticizing the Democratic Party a criminal offense punishable by imprisonment or death. And they will, if we let them.
