    An irony

    Right after she blasts the Fairness Doctrine, CP mentions the disastrous invasion of Iraq, which happens to be Exhibit A in showing why the Fairness Doctrine is necessary. (Remember when MSNBC canned Phil Donahue's show, despite having the network's highest ratings, because he was challenging the coming war?)

    It's characteristically disingenuous of CP to wonder why liberals can't succeed in talk radio while ignoring the fact that too many station owners prefer conservative shows. (The MSM's "undeniable liberal bias" is a particularly threadbare cliche.)
