			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">MediaFairness.com is dedicated to fighting the idea that fairness must (or can) be imposed upon the media.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">For one, this site will serve to argue against re-adoption of the so-called &#8220;Fairness Doctrine&#8221;, based on the well-founded argument that the Fairness Doctrine is an unlawful prior restraint on speech which, when in effect years ago, was imposed in order to grant rights to broadcasters to editorialize and was technically based on the Federal Communication Commission&#8217;s notion of &#8220;scarcity&#8221;. With new media technology, scarcity no longer exists.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span id="more-1"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><img title="More..." src="http://mediafairness.com/wp-includes/js/tinymce/plugins/wordpress/img/trans.gif" alt="" />The Fairness Doctrine is a very dangerous proposition.  A short study of history reveals that the first move of a totalitarian regime is to take over the media and the last whimper of such a regime is their crackling voice heard over the air from deep within the bunker - media is all important to control and so it must remain in the hands of the citizens, not the government. As such, the recent momentum for revival of the Fairness Doctrine must be stopped.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">This site, through editorial content and links to external sites, will also seek to expose and criticize government manipulation of the media and apparent media bias.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Please share this web site with like-minded friends and colleagues and keep up the fight against government control of the media. Even with the lopsided liberal slant of television and print, the media is our last best hope to resist a disastrous slide to socialism, or worse.  Support the advertisers of local and clear-minded media and turn your backs on those who support media which undermines the Constitution and would help others bastardize traditional American culture and our free economy.  The enemy of the truly free press is not elite, liberal, white, black or otherwise.  It is those of any ilk who would undermine free access to information and free expression, for the purposes of control of the less-informed masses and creation of a political stronghold.  So far, the Democrat Congress and Obama are scoring very poorly as they&#8217;ve tipped their hand several times to reveal a bona-fide lust for un-Constitutional media control.</p>
