Bill Orly: Nobel Peace Prize committee has now said to the world 'we are a joke'

initial thoughts. I recommended this and it stayed at zero
rec's.(Please no lectures about rec commenting). Anyway, I
thought that this was eye opening also. Personally, I can not
understand why (besides Rahms influence), President Obama has
not reinstated the FAIRNESS DOCTRINE. At least, they (FOX),
would have had to present someones differing opinion.
Admittedly, I think that President Obama (as he said) has not
accomplished (yet) the humanity affirming accomplishments of
most previous winners. I still have high hopes that he will,
while he is still in office. IMO, he will have to accept the
resignation of Rahm first...
While I was listening to this post, I opened another window
and googled "THE TIMES OF LONDON." I was not very
surprised when I read that it was owned by...(drum roll
please)..RUPERT MURDOCH. He will spend his last cent (naw, too
greedy for that) trying to destroy President Obama. That is
another reason,among dozens that I can think of, for President
Obama to reinstate the FAIRNESS DOCTRINE. With out some truth
presented to the populace, to counter Murdoch's propaganda,
President Obama is in danger every time these propaganda
machines (24/7) spew their hate. That can be seen by the
already virulent "town hall screamers", the
"teabaggers(lol,,i luv that), the "9/12'ers",
birthers, etc..
Fox is putting our President (and I am NOT a cheerleader by
any means) in DANGER. Really, by their constant lying, with
nothing to balance their lies (like the FAIRNESS
DOCTRINE),people, convinced by FOX, that they are patriots,
would, at this moment, harm our President. I hope that it does
not take a real tragedy, goaded by Murdoch, before we realize
that the FAIRNESS DOCTRINE is mandatory in a world where media
ownership is not limited and the truth has already been sold
to the highest bidder.
On another subject(kind of), I used to respect Chris Wallace.
I thought that he was a real journalist (years ago) and quite
believable. If a lot of freepers still believe this (and I'm
sure they do),then this just make our President, less safe.
President Obama is not "W", he lets unvetted,
non-supporters who do not have to sign a loyalty pledge,
attend his speeches. I am so glad that he does, but, we have
to protect him. Not wait until some crazy attempts something,
but expose people to other opinions besides Murdoch's.
