Will Obama Censor KATG?

FYI, Censorship is back in style with big government in style again. Under the guise of the Fairness Doctrine, the new FCC wants to tell the people what they can and can't say. This is all hardly a surprise, as liberals have never liked that internet content is not regulated in someway.

From the article (link)...

Does one heavily trafficked Internet site present one side of an issue and not link to sites that present alternative views? These are some of the questions the chairman is thinking about right now, and we are going to have an FCC that will finally have the people in place to answer them."

The House Energy and Commerce Committee is also looking at how it can put in place policies that would allow it greater oversight of the Internet. "Internet radio is becoming a big deal, and we're seeing that some web sites are able to control traffic and information, while other sites that may be of interest or use to citizens get limited traffic because of the way the people search and look for information," says on committee staffer. "We're at very early stages on this, but the chairman has made it clear that oversight of the Internet is one of his top priorities."
