A Letter - or... Don't worry about the law, Eric it doesn't apply to us

Wednesday's Rush Morning Update:

"House Speaker and frequent flier Nancy Pelosi is worried, folks: some of her favorite Drive-By Media publications are near death. So Pelosi sent Attorney General Eric Holder a letter, asking the Justice Department to give the San Francisco Chronicle and other newspapers preferential treatment. She wants the Justice Department to look the other way when it comes to enforcing antitrust laws. In theory, that would allow The Chronicle and other papers to try to merge their way out of failure.

Folks, in our lifetime we've seen Democrats use antitrust laws to try and destroy "Big Telecom" and "Big Software." Democrats make no secret of their desire to try and destroy "Big Pharma," "Big Tobacco," "Big Wal-Mart," and, of course, me: "Big Radio." The aviation industry is their latest target. So why the interest to make sure dying Drive-By newspapers survive, even as their readers and advertisers abandon them in droves?

Well, in her letter to Eric Holder, Nancy Pelosi said, "We must ensure that our policies enable our news organizations to survive and to engage in the news-gathering and analysis that the American people expect."

Now that's a total crock. Let me translate what she really means: "We Democrats must ensure that our policies enable our P. R. accomplices in the print media to continue to take our dictation so they can survive. They must continue our propaganda war on Republicans, under the guise of news-gathering and analysis. That's what we Democrats expect -- and Eric, old buddy, you'd better deliver... or we'll bring Marc Rich back at you."

San Francisco Chronicle: Pelosi goes to bat to keep Bay Area papers alive

Now if this doesn't call it on the carpet... Since when does an industry get a pass on "Anti-Trust"? Answer, when its the propaganda arm of the Democrat party. At a time when liberal CEOs are driving their companies into the ground, liberal media in both television and print is foundering because people have had enough, a demonstration of how socialism works. Those that are favored by the government get special consideration and support. This is UNEQUALITY at its best, and the true great equalizer is natural law and the free market.

Change... its what's for dinner... a little salt with your crow?
