EU calls for regulation of journalists

EU calls for regulation of journalists. “All EU countries should have independent media councils… Media councils should have real enforcement powers, such as the imposition of fines, orders for printed or broadcast apologies, or removal of journalistic status.” Bureaucrats want the power to regulate what is said about them… yeah, that’ll increase “media freedom and pluralism”. Our journ0lists are self-regulating. They kiss Obama’s butt but stop when he’s putting or driving.

    You need to pay closer attention. When he's putting or driving, that is when they do that little "tongue flick trick" they're famous for - the treasonous little pricks! Did you know that during the Civil War Gen. Grant would hang journalists? Yup, stretch their treasonous necks bow-string tight....they learned not to publish Union maneuvers pretty quick.

  • We will soon be in the same boat. We had better start electing representatives that respect our Constitution and Bill of Rights as written. Executive order has to stop. It gives too much power for one person to circumvent the will of the people by going around our representatives. I am truly worried by the lack of resistance to the recent abuse of executive order. Our Main Stream Media which should be the watchdog that warns us of danger has become the lapdog of the enemy to our freedom.

  • Think one of these birdcage liner factories will someday comprehend that the 2nd Amendment is also there to protect the 1st Amendment? I doubt it. At least not until it's too late.
