Savoir FairnessDoctrine @badfcctakes.bsky.social · 3mAnd partisan talk media THRIVED during the FD era, especially from the right, as this article from The Nation in 1964 indicates. 000
Savoir FairnessDoctrine @badfcctakes.bsky.social · 14/10/2026Not FCC related, but I just read the dumbest take I have ever seen. 150
Savoir FairnessDoctrine @badfcctakes.bsky.social · 12/10/2026Dude linked to this article as a way to GOTCHA!!! you, and it doesn't even mention the word "unregistered". What. A. Moron. saputo.law/criminal-law... 100
Savoir FairnessDoctrine @badfcctakes.bsky.social · 12/10/2026No, I called in more people to be entertained by you. You made first contact with me, asshole, remember? And this is what you said. And now you're crying because you got it returned 10-fold? You fucking crybaby. 100
Savoir FairnessDoctrine @badfcctakes.bsky.social · 12/10/2026Hey, remember when you based your argument on a case that was overturned almost 60 years ago? 010
Savoir FairnessDoctrine @badfcctakes.bsky.social · 12/10/2026You're not accepting it because you wish the law worked the way you want it to. And also because this: 020
Savoir FairnessDoctrine @badfcctakes.bsky.social · 12/10/2026We've got ourselves a 1st Amendment scholar here! 110
Savoir FairnessDoctrine @badfcctakes.bsky.social · 12/10/2026Posting it again because I forgot Alt-text 000
Savoir FairnessDoctrine @badfcctakes.bsky.social · 12/10/2026This took 5 seconds to google. Maybe AI will convince you even if my actual intelligence didn't. 200
Savoir FairnessDoctrine @badfcctakes.bsky.social · 12/10/2026(See, personally I think this is just you projecting, and now you're in way over your head and can't find a way out except to block or mute) 010
Savoir FairnessDoctrine @badfcctakes.bsky.social · 11/10/2026I am (or rather was) and I didn't look up the statute because the entire concept is dumb. Incitement is mentioned in the post; this ain't it, and Brandenburg is why. Trump's words to his crowd lacked any sort of liklihood to create any imminent lawlessness. It's not any form of incitement. 210
Savoir FairnessDoctrine @badfcctakes.bsky.social · 09/10/2026That's absolutely not the case. From 1964. 010
Savoir FairnessDoctrine @badfcctakes.bsky.social · 09/10/2026The Fairness Doctrine era was loaded with one-sided editorial content. The only real difference in the 80s was the rise of satellite syndication to create more national shows as opposed to hundreds of similar ones w/ local hosts. Attached is from The Nation's 1964 article "Hate Clubs of The Air" 110
Savoir FairnessDoctrine @badfcctakes.bsky.social · 08/10/2026The attached is an excerpt from "Hate Clubs of the Air", an article in The Nation that is a nice snapshot from 1964, the year it was published. That was the heart of the Fairness Doctrine era. 010
Savoir FairnessDoctrine @badfcctakes.bsky.social · 07/10/2026Your screenshot references Cornell's legal institute. Here's a screenshot from that link. I don't like Trump nor what he said. But people calling for his arrest a la the OP and their meme are going to be disappointed. 120
Savoir FairnessDoctrine @badfcctakes.bsky.social · 07/10/2026Imminent means near immediate: "Speech brigaded with action" as written in the SCOTUS ruling Trump wasn't anywhere near that. supreme.justia.com/cases/federa... 220
Savoir FairnessDoctrine @badfcctakes.bsky.social · 06/10/2026This was wrong? Why? What's wrong with it? 120
Savoir FairnessDoctrine @badfcctakes.bsky.social · 06/10/2026I think that by replying to Reich's post with a reference to the Fairness Doctrine (which is completely off-topic), Not Terry qualifies as a "fumduck". 320
Savoir FairnessDoctrine @badfcctakes.bsky.social · 06/10/2026And FFS, it's like he responded to a completely different comment, since the words he put in my mouth aren't at all what I said. 140
Savoir FairnessDoctrine @badfcctakes.bsky.social · 06/10/2026Remember when you said this--you know, the basis for your entire premise? This is wrong. And everything you have said since that was based on this is also wrong. You also have a distorted view of Fox's reach today, plus no clue about what media was like in the FD era, even if you (HA!) "lived it". 140
Savoir FairnessDoctrine @badfcctakes.bsky.social · 06/10/2026Probably, because pretty much every single market had local RW propaganda outlets that in many cases drew large audiences. This is from a 1964 article in The Nation entitled "Hate Clubs of the Air". 240
Savoir FairnessDoctrine @badfcctakes.bsky.social · 06/10/2026Blocked for bursting Warren's bubble and telling him that FoxNews doesn't have nor need a FCC license. 020
Savoir FairnessDoctrine @badfcctakes.bsky.social · 06/10/2026My fee-fees are hurt. MizMunca just called me foolish! 000
Savoir FairnessDoctrine @badfcctakes.bsky.social · 06/10/2026This is from The Nation in 1964, an article entitled "Hate Clubs of the Air". This is what help build the audience that Rush tapped into in the 80s, FoxNews in the 90s, etc etc etc. 120
Savoir FairnessDoctrine @badfcctakes.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Forgot to mention that the reason there was a Fairness Doctrine at all was to stop propaganda!! Strange how that never came up at all in Red Lion. 360
Savoir FairnessDoctrine @badfcctakes.bsky.social · 05/10/2026YOU GUYS!!! He lived it, and in no way is his take that the Fairness Doctrine's demise brought on FoxNews at all in error because HE WAS THERE and didn't get his info from the 4 memes he posted. 280
Savoir FairnessDoctrine @badfcctakes.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Someone tell the idiot that ABC does not have a broadcast license. Only their dozen or so local stations have those. 100
Savoir FairnessDoctrine @badfcctakes.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Propaganda is strong and effective. And what you suggest would be used to lock up guys like Paul Revere for publishing and distributing this as much if not more than it would be used to stop media outlets like FoxNews. 000
Savoir FairnessDoctrine @badfcctakes.bsky.social · 05/10/2026If we did what you support, Paul Revere is jailed for this. You think that's fine. I do not. We're not going to agree, and I know I'd much prefer the world where nobody is locked up for propaganda that doesn't cross into defamation. 000
Savoir FairnessDoctrine @badfcctakes.bsky.social · 05/10/2026We're talking about the 1st Amendment. 000
Savoir FairnessDoctrine @badfcctakes.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Because going back to this picture, Trump would have called this fake news (and he'd have a point) and tried to squelch it. A court or council to fact check? Great idea. Who holds them accountable? The government, right? 000
Savoir FairnessDoctrine @badfcctakes.bsky.social · 05/10/2026And "try something" is lunacy when that something is "force media to be more under government control". That'd make the problem worse, which again is why Trump is so adamant to do it. 100
Savoir FairnessDoctrine @badfcctakes.bsky.social · 05/10/2026OK. So would you allow Paul Revere to publish this account of the Boston Massacre if you were instituting your rules? 100
Savoir FairnessDoctrine @badfcctakes.bsky.social · 05/10/2026It's Trump and his cronies that want to control media content. I'd hope that Democrats and progressives are smart enough to understand why he wants that, and why doing this even after he leaves power would be a really, really dangerous course of action. 000
Savoir FairnessDoctrine @badfcctakes.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Kev struggles to discern between 1st Amendment issues and issues that involve ownership. 130
Savoir FairnessDoctrine @badfcctakes.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Um WhaT dO yOu CAlL meRgErS?!?!1?!?111!?! This, stupid. This is what I called it. Sorry if that's confusing. 011
Savoir FairnessDoctrine @badfcctakes.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Jay seems upset that smarter, more informed people than him have let him know he's an ignorant dummy. 160
