Republikeinen willen dat de publieke radio-omroep in de VS verdwijnt zodat alle nieuws door grote bedrijven en hun lobbyisten kan worden gecontroleerd.
The House Republicans will vote today on a bill to stop any federal funding for National Public Radio. During the House Rules Committee hearing yesterday in which the de-funding bill was discussed, Rep. James McGovern (D-MA) proposed this amendment:
MCGOVERN: Over the past several years, it has become clear that the Fox News channel is wildly biased.
They continue to employ a talk show host who called President Obama a racist.
They continue to employ several prospective Republican Presidential candidates as “analysts,” giving them hours and hours of free air time.
And their parent company has donated millions to GOP-linked groups.
My amendment would prohibit federal funds – taxpayer dollars – from being used for advertising on the partisan, political platform of Fox News.
