DEMOCRATS USE MEDIA MATTERS TO PUSH “FAIRNESS DOCTRINE”

Editorial claims the left-wing Media Matters is trying “to push for restoration of the 1949 Federal Communications Commission regulation known as the "Fairness Doctrine," so that any successful conservative radio voice is matched by a leftist with equal time.” Later: Sen. Hillary Clinton says she helped found the group, and her closely associated think tank, the Center for American Progress, gave it funding and office space. Media Matters also receives funds from the radical MoveOn.org, and the secretive rich man's club known as Democracy Alliance, all of which have taken money from George Soros, who has donated considerable cash to different media groups who promote the Fairness Doctrine.
