Mark Lloyd – Anti-First Amendment Czar
What direction is the United State going? Let’s look at Mark Lloyd, the Federal Communications Commission’s (FCC) Chief Diversity Czar as he admires Hugo Chavez.
“In Venezuela, with Chavez really had an incredible revolution, a democratic revolution, and to begin to put in place, saying that we’re going to have an impact on the people of Venezuela, the property owners and the folks who were then controlling the media in Venezuela rebelled. Worked, frankly, with the folks here in the U.S. government, worked to oust him and came back had another revolution. And Chavez then started to take the media very seriously in this country.”
Mr. Lloyd, let’s take apart this statement you made on June 10, 2008 at National Conference for Media Reform in Minneapolis, MN:
“In Venezuela, with Chavez really had an incredible revolution, a democratic revolution,”
A democratic revolution? Like the one we had last year when Obutthole was elected, huh?
“and to begin to put in place, saying that we’re going to have an impact on the people of Venezuela,”
It was an impact. These poor people didn’t know Hugo was a Communist and he was voted in “democratically”.
“the property owners and the folks who were then controlling the media in Venezuela rebelled.”
The media is supposed to be the “watchdog” of the government. Sort of what our media is “supposed” to be.
“Worked, frankly, with the folks here in the U.S. government, worked to oust him”
Communism is the enemy of freedom. You didn’t learn that in school did you? Commies don’t want you to be free. Read a history book. but not one from your local public school. Those books are only meant to indoctrinate children. Hugo Chavez is a COMMUNIST!
“and came back had another revolution. And Chavez then started to take the media very seriously in this country.”
Mr. Lloyd, Berry Obutthole, isn’t that what you’re trying to do here? What’s up with the “fairness doctrine” or “localism”? To take over the dissenting media to control your opponents, be more like the Communist Hugo Chavez?
Hugo Chavez has been cracking down on dissent by silencing the media, shutting down 32 radio stations and two small television stations last month and also refused to renew the license of another opposition aligned TV station. Another 29 radio stations will be leaving the airwaves soon.
Lloyd has poopooed the “fairness doctrine” because everyone now knows about it, so now “localism” will be the way they shut down Conservative and Christian radio stations. Just what is “localism”?
“Localism” is a Federal Communications Commission rule where radio and television stations are required to serve the interests of their local community as a condition of keeping their broadcast licenses.
“Localism,” meaning local content. Broadcasters must increase the local content on their radio stations. Other guidelines for programming and diversity and advisory boards overseeing radio stations, making sure that the requirements are monitor and upheld.
Lloyd proposes that radio companies pay 100% of their operating budget yearly. That 100% tax would then be transferred to state run liberal radio of NPR. If you can’t pay the tax you’ll lose your license. And that license will then be sold to a minority group.
An FCC license is required for any radio or television station to legally operate in the United States. A single complaint from anyone can significantly hinder a station’s license renewal process or even cost the station its FCC license entirely.
Minority groups will harass conservative stations by using the “localism” requirement and file complaints with the FCC. The FCC then assesses these stations fines. The money then goes to the liberal public broadcasting stations. The FCC could rescind these stations broadcast licenses. These stations are either shut up or shut down.
Lloyd thinks that “the original sin in communications” was when “President Jefferson relinquished control” of the telegraph from the Post Office.
Lloyd wrote in “Forget the Fairness Doctrine” on July 24, 2007, “In our report, we call for ownership of rules that we think will create greater local diversity of programming, news, and commentary. And we call for more localism by putting more teeth into licensing rules. But we do not call for a return of the fairness doctrine.”
Be weary of Lloyd’s views on the First Amendment. They are cause for great alarm. “It should be clear by now that my focus here is not freedom of speech or the press. This freedom is all too often an exaggeration. At the very least, blind references to freedom of speech or the press serve as a distraction from the critical examination of other communications policies.”
All of this information can be found on the internet. You can Google it. Just like Van Jones, Mark Lloyd is a Communist. You just can’t find him say it on the internet YET. Obuttholes Czars are out to remove your rights. The Constitution is too restrictive for Obutthole and friends. His “Constitutional” lawyers are looking for work arounds in the Constitution when the founding fathers had an original intent. Is this what you voted for? Was the hope and change you wanted? Pull your head out of your ass and understand what you’ve done if you voted for this Commie bastard. Your freedom is at stake.
