He knows damn well that if the Fairness Doctrine is reinstated, he'll be out of a job.

2. You know, I think we need more than a return to the Fairness
Doctrine. We need a Media Exposure Doctrine to show what the rightwing has done to our public airwaves and then a Media Repair Doctrine to fix it. Then perhaps after that we can return to the Fairness Doctrine.

3. MoveOn is fighting for FCC rules right now.
We have calls to make to the Senate today to keep Powell's rules from being in effect.

If they actually fighting for the Fairness Doctrine, I have not had any mailings on that.

4. MoveOn scares Rush
The moeny raised ove a weekend--far in excess of a million dollars--indicates the internet funding model works and the grass rootrs CAN AND WILL rise up against corporate dominion such as the owners of the Clear Channel Network.

Moveon is sponsoring a big anti-California recall protest tomorrow.

this also interferes with the Republicans/Grover Norquitst's plans for dominance through partisan attack.

6. A big fight is gearing up
in the Senate and I believe Michael Powell (Colin's son) will be shot down. junior said he would veto the bill.
In my opinion the FCC has lost.
