Like most attempts to silence or control the media, this one is likely to be dead in the water.

Just how long can we fail to pay the price for liberty, which is still eternal vigilance, before we wake up one day to find it has been taken away completely?


We have already lost some of our liberties.  We have asset forfeiture laws, for example, a government "considering" mandatory "volunteer" service, the Orwellian named "fairness doctrine", the similarly named "patriot act."  It is not beyond the realm of possibility that we could lose the freedom of speech as well.


But, the bill in the OP will almost certainly fail, so go back to sleep.  All is well.
