Glenn Beck: Freedom Of Speech In Grave Danger

Today, Glenn Beck continued his week-long series on Obama’s czars and advisers– their backgrounds and agendas. Today Glenn highlighted new FCC “Diversity Officer” Mark Lloyd. “The Diversity Czar, as he’s known informally, although the White House wanted to correct Glenn about Mark. He has been vetted by the Senate… a czar first!

That’s all Barry wanted to clear up, however. Your freedom of speech is still very much at risk…on purpose. You cannot be trusted with such a dangerous thing… lucky for you that Big Brother knows what’s best.

Mark Lloyd is looking to severely limit free speech in America through a series of new initiatives, without ever having to revive the “Fairness Doctrine” that was abandoned in 1985. Radio stations would have to pay an amount equal to 100 percent of their yearly operating budgets to the government…to fund public radio. If a station wasn’t “locally diversified” enough for the government, it would lose it’s license to a more favored one.

Glenn told guest Rush Limbaugh today that:

It is terribly upsetting and disconcerting, and I wish I didn’t think it and I wish I didn’t have to say it. But there’s no way to sugarcoat it. This is not politics as usual. This is not left versus right. This is not Republican versus Democrat. This is statism, totalitarianism versus freedom. And if these people are allowed to go where they want to go unchecked, then some people, a lot of people – I don’t think half the country, but close – will wake up one day and find, “My God, what the hell happened?” Because this is not what they voted for. They had no intention of this. They thought they were getting something entirely different and it is a responsibility that we all have being honest and earnest to inform people of what these possibilities are because they are very real.
