Political Corruption in America begins and ends with the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). By design, this governmental agency sets “communications policy” for the sitting President. FCC policy doesn’t seem to change regardless of whether or not a Democrat or Republican holds the office of President of the United States of America.
Since the advent of broadcast television and radio, the FCC, with full support and leadership from both political parties (Democrat and Republican) have all but destroyed our most precious right as American citizens. What right am I speaking of? Our right to vote in an open and free democratic election.
Yes, us mere citizens can still vote but who are we really voting for? Is there any “real difference” between the “media supported” candidates? And who or what determines within the American media establishment which candidates are the best and brightest for Americas political future?
Flip on any major radio or television news channel and you’ll hear the same old tune that’s created 16 million unemployed Americans. You’ll also hear how billions of U.S. dollars are being wasted to bailout Ivy league scam artists who happen to head up some of Americas biggest financial institutions which include yet another corrupted, bi-partisan led government agency, the U.S. Department of Treasury.
What you wont hear on any major news broadcast is real debate from real citizens. Unfiltered news and real public debate would go a long way into fixing most of Americas political problems. Imagine open and fair media access to any and all U.S. citizens interested in fixing our government from Main Street to the halls of Congress.
Real political reform will only happen in America when federal agencies such as the FCC become depoliticized. In 2010, we have news channels, movie channels, sports channels, shopping channels and sex channels. We even have a “liquidation” channel. All of this programming begs the question, Why Don’t We Have “Election” channels that provide free and open access to all who wish to make America a better country for All Americans?
