" I hope you have -- a pencil and paper we are asking an awful lot of questions. And you need to follow up on them this is not about left or right Republican or Democrat it's not about it really it's not even about President Obama as I. We'll show you this stuff has been laid during the Bush Administration. Do you believe in the constitution. Do you believe in freedom of speech. Do you believe in a free press. Well here is what our new FCC chief diversity officer. Said listen the owners."

" We're."

" news. OVE news now. More. So you can use. -- Yeah."

" Can't -- that the important revolution would -- call it credible the incredible revolution from Hugo Chavez. Fi hi I'm beginning to see that whole meeting with Hugo Chavez in the book can hold different like are you. Seton -- director of communications for the Media Research Center is with us tell me exactly what his -- His plan is to use the nebulous FCC regulations of -- diversity and localism. To travel alternate routes to arrive at these same destination -- the Fairness Doctrine which is to shut you up by shutting you down. He wants to assault the radio industry to effect an ideological outcome. As we discuss we go. He wants to charge you dollar for dollar your 100% operating cost for the year insane it's insane nobody can do that is anyone's defined yet if you want meeting his death on top of that. If you're not meeting his definition. Of media diversity and localism he's actually come up with a media diversity and localism mathematical equation. Which is bizarre on its face first to baucus that you -- transit system map but beyond that it's just bizarre because he goes into this. Formula where it's four new raiders over denominator. All the new raiders or multiply by one another. So if you screw up anyone of them you get to zero it's also lured out and you failed and you get find money yes and that could be anyone before additionally. He's got his media diversity working against his localism at times if you hired three local reporters but the all white guys. That's zero. And you goals there without and you could find. And of course all of this money is supposed to look I don't care I really don't care about. I believe in the words of Martin Luther King judge somebody by the content of their character why are we being dragged back into the 1950s. Where we're looking at somebody's skin color. And that's what he once did he is myopic we've focused on the racial and ethnic and we're not even talking about we're only talking about race as I understand it. We're not talking about diversity of opinion who knew none. Could remember he's working with the diversity pin all the diversity committee the FCC which has 31 groups on it not more conservative. So there's certainly no it ideological diversity on the diversity committee group panel that's been around for years but 2006 because -- that was a similar fumble by former Republican chairman Kevin Martin along the lines of the creation of the process of beginning. Of the creation of the local university content -- this track has been laid yes over the last what six years there about Pharmacia and internally. Sort of look at chairman -- right -- it has been who it has been -- give me want to give me one more things I've only got a few more seconds for the give me one more thing that he is planning or he has said. That people should know well what he wants to do as he wants to set up eight pods around the country of FCC boards. And -- CPB board couldn't corporation boulevard cutting boards and he wants them to regulate. -- political advertising and commentary. Number of commercials these could -- stations run and ratings information about programs before. They're broadcast. So this that he wants to take over regulation of the entire operation. Of of radio and television station it is absolutely. Unbelievable. America."

" Is this America. Is it ask yourself that question these are reasonable questions in apparently unreasonable times is this the way we decide. How things happen. Do we have. These shadow operations. With these news cars or advisers -- what the hell they wanna call boom. Calling the shots and doing it with a hidden agenda doing it slowly. Quietly behind the scenes and then boom. There it is you are about to lose your freedom of speech in this country. If you disagree with that -- use contact me and tell me how. Because I'd like to live in that world I'd like to believe that. But with everything else I have shown you this week and then you see that clamp down by somebody who is extolling the virtues of the revolution. In Venezuela."

" I don't know how you see that could somebody please I mean this sincerely. Please explain to me how this isn't anti capitalist. Revolutionary. In nature and anti constitutional. How is this how does this resemble our -- public. And our First Amendment. At all. Please answer that question. Rush Limbaugh."
