Bill has pressed (sorry – couldn’t resist) for a return of the Fairness Doctrine to censor points of view that he sees as being expressed too often, or too effectively.

Then he denied wanting to censor anything, instead arguing that he was a defender of free speech and that the only way to get free speech was for the government to require that certain perspectives be aired.

Now, at last, he comes out and admits the truth – his position is all about his personal self-interest, in particular his financial self-interest.

I know why I'm interested in it because I get up every morning at 3:45, I do three hours of talk radio every day from six to nine, that's my life, it's my business, I want to make money at it, and I want to be heard.

So let’s not call it the Fairness Doctrine – call it the Bill Press Bailout and Stimulus Package instead. It is about liberal greed as well as ideological censorship.

Listen to the audio.
