I realize it's the nature of things to claim Public Broadcasting is 
biased. I often listen and hear many different opinions. I recall PBS 
carrying William F. Buckley for years. A real conservative. Would 
they be required to give neo-conservatives with grossly different 
principles time? I believe the McLaughlin Report began on PBS. What 
about people with really alternative points of view? Imagine Michael 
Savage having to allow time for Gays. I'm sure religion would be 
exempted but just imagine Willie's station having to give time to 
Mormons, Muslims, Jews and atheists. Personally, I see no reason 
religious broadcasters should be exempt.

All of this with vagueness that makes indecency regulations seem 
clear cut. No thanks.
