The FCC diversity chief and his ties to Saul Alinsky and his Marxist language.

This somewhat follows after the last post by Bud-D. "Inspired by Saul Alinsky[...]Mark Lloyd, chief diversity officer of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), called for a “confrontational movement” to combat what he claimed was control of the media by international corporations and to re-establish the regulatory power of government through robust public broadcasting and a more powerful FCC." I like that name diversity chief. Using diversity as a way to increase government's influence. The evil international businesses. Where have I heard the demonization of businesses before?...Karl Marx.

"In the book, Lloyd also said that public broadcasting should be funded through new license fees charged to the nation’s private radio and television broadcasters, and that new regulatory fees should be used to fund eight new regional FCC offices.[...]Corporate liberty has overwhelmed citizen equality,” this sounds like a communist talking.

“If our republican form of government is perishing because communications – the infrastructure of that republic – is under the yoke of international business how, at last, do we save it?” he asks. “We must build a confrontational movement to reclaim our democracy, a movement committed to active and sustained protest against the present order.” Interesting that he states republican form of government. The yoke of international business? What does he mean by a "confrontational movement to reclaim our democracy"? What about the yoke of international government? Wait, power is good when in the hands of the government but bad when in the hands of private businesses.

An interesting statement that this guy said in 2008, "State radio in Rwanda was taken over by one tribe one group and they began to put out propaganda, so that the Tutsis were targeted and what resulted from the fact that state radio was able to do that essentially mass genocide in Rwanda. But the state for this particular tribe which controlled the radio very purposefully to make sure{?unintelligible) there was media and social change. In Venezuela, with Chavez, really an incredible revolution-a dramatic revolution- to begin to put in place saying that we're going to have impact on the people of Venezuela the property owners and the folks who were then controlling the media in Venezuela rebelled work frankly with folks here in the U.S. government-worked to oust him and came back and had another revolution. and Chavez then started to take the media very seriously in this country." By Chavez taking the media very seriously, was he saying Chavez should take the media of Venezuela over? Is he hinting that the U.S. government should take the media over? What did Lloyd mean when he stated that the revolution in Venezuela was incredible? This shows an affinity for Chavez and his socialist/communist government.

Another good article. "Federal Communications Commission Chief Diversity Officer Mark Lloyd called on fellow liberals to follow the model of former President Franklin Delano Roosevelt and challenge conservative media moguls and station owners, particularly figures such as Rush Limbaugh, Rupert Murdoch, and “a pro-big business Supreme Court aligned” with them.[...] Lloyd highlights one Roosevelt tactic in particular, using the Justice Department to take his conservative media critics to court on anti-trust grounds."

This guy was put in a position of power in our government by President Obama. This guy will be leading the charge under the banner of diversity to curtail freedom of speech. It is amazing that there are so many people that Obama has put in positions of power in our government that hold these beliefs.

  1. Right, is this America? I mean how does a guy with views like that get a prominent position in US government? But then, how does a guy like Obama get elected president? Potential for a great post would be for an RTP contributor to run down through all Obama's various 'Czars' and see where they all come from, along wtih his close advisors Axelrod and Ayers. I'm sure it would show a wide-ranging diversity of thought!

  2. I have a hard time believing some of these things. These people will be put out of power eventually, but not after they greatly change our country and get us closer to their final goal--an America ruled by an authoritarian system.
