And Moore is shocked--SHOCKED!!!--that audience members might be screened. Really?

As for net neutrality, the reason your handlers are asking you to speak out against it is because it will keep their greedy little fingers from controlling the only truly democratic medium in the country: the internet. Anyone can post, anyone can be heard. The major corporations are really not big fans of anything that isn't ultimately under their control. It allows those they've wronged, those they've cheated, to get together and compare notes, and find out that it's not just an isolated incident here or there, it's a clear pattern of habitual abuse and fraud.
Net neutrality seeks to prevent this corporate control, okay? You can compare it to the Fairness Doctrine if you like, trying to smear the one with the other, but the truth about the Fairness Doctrine was that it worked quite well for over half a century. Ronald Reagan didn't like it, and by killing it brought us disasters like Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, and YOU, Mr. Dobbs. The grassroots campaign to have you removed from CNN? That would've been much more difficult if the internet were controlled by the likes of Rupert Murdoch, who have already gained monopolistic control of the media in certain markets. Fortunately, it is still a free medium, for the moment. Most Americans, knowing the value of that freedom, favor net neutrality when it is impartially and accurately explained. But, keep on lying, if it makes you feel warm and fuzzy all over.
Imagine if we had our 'choice' w/o Net Neutrality: AOL, Prodigy...
- he constantly defends fox news.
- he has some idiot from newsbusters on.
how much more obvious can you get?
