'A New Bailout Plan for the Media?'
From Reader No. 1:
From Reader No. 1:
A New Bailout Plan for the Media? Here. What exactly do you suppose Senator Stabenow means by "accountability and standards" on the "airwaves"?I have my suspicions. I'm against any government speech rules in general, whether in the guise of the Fairness Doctrine or trying to save newspapers via nonprofit tax codes. But I might entertain slot machines in newsrooms or First-time Reporters Home-buying Programs. ... (Must be a jobs-multiplier effect in there somewhere.-ed. Damn right.)
