Rush Limbaugh and the Space Aliens

The Startling Evidence Revealed!

The Startling Evidence Revealed!

If I were a journalist,  I would like to interview a Democrat US senator.

Me:  Thank you for sitting down with me Senator.  I’d like to ask you some questions on the (un)Fairness Doctrine.

Senator:  Thank you Mr. Evil Matt for having me on.  I think that the Amerikan people deserve diversity on the airwaves.  We, in both houses of Congress are very concerned with the influence that Rush Limbaugh has on the people.  The people need to hear progressive messages.

Me:  Well Senator, interesting that you say that.  Do you realize that between Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity and Michael Savage, there are between 30-40 million listeners a week?

Senator:  That’s a big problem here in DC.  These hosts have a monopoly on listeners.  Their listeners get all sort of crazy ideas about Amerika.

Me: Crazy ideas?  You mean like freedom?

Senator:  ABSOLUTELY!  These bastards are mystifying the proletariat with their talk of individual freedom and personal responsibility.  Those ideas are SOOO 18th century.  We’re in Washington working on change, and these hosts are interfering.  The people should only hear things that we approve.

Me: So, the (un)Fairness Doctrine IS about getting Conservative talk off the air?

Senator: Yes it is, we have a responsibility to the sheeple to insure that they have no independent thoughts.  The messiah, has assured us that we will have change, so we have to eliminate any competing ideologies.

Me: But Senator, those millions of people choose to listen to those programs.

Senator:  No they don’t!  Rush Limbaugh has created millions of tiny robots with laser eyes.  They walk into people’s ears and tell them if they don’t tune in, it’s goodbye brain stem!!!  It’s a vast right wing conspiracy!!  No one would ever go against the messiah, not without some evil influence.

Me: I see, then how do you explain the failure of AirAmerica?  That was a fully funded radio network, wasn’t it?  Then nobody listened to it, right?

Senator:  Well, you see, lots of people listened, but Rush Limbaugh had them killed!  It’s all about this Rush Limbaugh!   He personally killed the listeners, and he had space aliens use mind control on advertisers so they wouldn’t buy ads on AirAmerica!

Me:  Mmkay  (I’m getting away from this nutball before he tries to kill me.)

All right, parody ends here.  The (un) Fairness Doctrine is intended to eliminate Conservative talk radio.  If it were to be reinstated, libs all over the US would file complaints with the FCC about any station or networked that carried a conservative host.  The FCC, currently run under the Obama administration, would be more than happy to act on these complaints, and broadcasters would have a choice; get rid of the conservative talk shows, or lose their licenses.  I know that they would have the option of adding lib talk shows, but on average, they don’t do nearly as well as the Conservative shows that would have to be displaced, and even Art Bell’s old show (still on the air with another host), would destroy a liberal talker in the late night hours.  So, station managers would have a difficult option, try to “balance” their broadcast days and lose ratings, as well as advertising revenue, or go to programming that avoids discussing anything political, relevant, entertaining, or informative.  I guess gardening and sports would still be OK.

The (un)Fairness Doctrine is not intended to end a monopoly, but to create one.  The libs already have the big broadcast networks, as well as most of the cable news networks.  Talk radio is the major old media outlet for Conservatives.  Shut that down, and the airwaves will again belong to the libs exclusively.  After all, complaints about liberal bias in media would be conveniently ignored by the Obama administration.

My parody only attempts to show the irrational nature of the libs to Conservative talk radio.  They DO ignore the fact that people want to listen to Limbaugh and the others.  If they did not, there would be no shows or hosts to ban.  It is a business, and it is successful because the message resonates with a large audience.  Therein lies the problems for the libs.  It’s the fact that Conservative talk radio presents a dissenting view is the libs true issue.  For socialism to succeed, all other ideologies must be eliminated.  Systems based on control cannot tolerate dissent, especially if that dissent shows the lies and flaws of the socialist system.

About the Author

Matt I believe that future generations should have the same opportunities that myself, and those that came before me, had. My parents taught me that I could do anything I wanted to do. I don’t want to have to tell my daughter, “You can do whatever the government tells you to do.” We are at a crossroads in this country; are we going to be free, or are we going to be slaves to the nanny state. I choose freedom.
