What do liberals really think about free speech? Look what Maxine Waters has to say about Rupert Murdoch’s Fox News Channel:
“Maybe we should make a lot more noise than we’re making,” California Democrat Maxine Waters told Murdoch. “You scare the hell out of me.”

It’s not being against free speech to see the horror we al;ready have with media being controlled by so few. I am amazed you can’t see that. Do you think it is a good thing to have so few control the information to the masses?
What you are saying is you don’t approve of free speech because you believe it should only belong to the wealthy wingnuts because they are on your side.
Why don’t you see what this consolidation portends for our country’s future?

From the same article:
“Most of the Republicans on the committee agreed with Murdoch, and they had little but praise for him, his cable news program and the DirecTV deal.”
– Does this mean we won’t have to hear more whinning about a totally liberal press?
and,
“If my wife doesn’t get a good dose of Fox News every morning, she gets pretty grumpy,” said Judiciary committee chairman James Sensenbrenner, a Republican from Wisconsin.
– Fox and Metamucil – same product, same results

Good to see that Maxine’s expanded her rhetoric beyond “no justice, no peace”.
Have her constituents stopped rioting, yet?

Indeed, the scary thing is that a complete idiot like Waters gets elected.
