Ken, no. (none / 0)
The internet is a fundamentally different medium from licensed broadcasts.  The two are only barely comparable.  Saying that those who are licensed to broadcast must serve the public in some way is entirely reasonable.  Saying that every host on the internet must do the same in the same way is completely absurd if you understand ANYTHING about the infrastructure of either.

In all that "preaching" you still have yet to explain how you think the fairness doctrine will restrict Limbaugh's freedom of speech.
