OK......make that double-dog-dare-ya'.
I admit it's a trap, 'cause if you do agree with this, you will have slapped the label Nazi, Fascist, Bolshevik, on your party.......exactly as I have said each and every day.
Here ya' go:
"CNN's Jake Tapper floats banning Republicans from shows over 'Big Lie': 'Why should I put any of them on TV?'
"...insisting that the "Big Lie" that the election was "stolen"..."
"The lie about the election on its own is anti-democracy and it is sowing seeds of ignorance in the populous and, obviously, it has the potential to incite violence, but beyond that is if you're willing to lie about that, what are you not willing to lie about?" Tapper asked. "That's where we are when it comes to the House Republican leadership McCarthy and [Rep. Steve] Scalise and where we are with too many leaders of the Republican Party. They're not willing to tell their voters the truth! What does that say about them?"

How about this......wanna agree with this????????
"I think it’s become clear that fairness is overrated ... the idea that we should always give two sides equal weight and merit does not reflect the world we find ourselves in," Holt said on Tuesday night while accepting an award at the 45th Murrow Symposium. "That the sun sets in the west is a fact. Any contrary view does not deserve our time or attention," Holt continued. "Decisions to not give unsupported arguments equal time are not a dereliction of journalistic responsibility or some kind of agenda, in fact, it’s just the opposite." NBC's Lester Holt says we don’t need to hear both sides to define truth: ‘Fairness is overrated’
Conservatives are unapologetic and unrepentant liars, to be sure.
But conservatives' arrogance is almost equally infuriating if they think the media has some kind of obligation to help conservatives spread their lies. They should have learned that when Facebook and Twitter banned Trump.
If you want another real world example, try this one. Let's say that there's a person and/or a company that is defrauding investors out of money. To do it, they use the US mail, emails, and telephones to solicit investments. Well, guess what, not only are those modes of communication under no obligation to facilitate a criminal enterprise, it's also illegal. It's called mail fraud and wire fraud.
Stop tap-dancing and answer the question:

The last I heard, airwaves are considered to be public property. They are licensed by the state (the FCC) to be operated for a specific period of time, at which point they are required to submit a renewal request which is always (to my knowledge) accompanied by a list of activities which the station in question has provided to the general public to show that they are working in the public interest.
News, weather, public notices, emergency declarations, etc are usually cited as how the stations are operating in the public interest.
Personally, I take exception with some of the more dubious commercials (like late night infomercials) which stations air in the early morning hours, especially when they're proceeded by a station declaration that they're not responsible for the content that they're broadcasting over the airwaves.
I've watched for years as politicians from both sides have offered subjective and self-serving evaluations of their "side" of the issues of the day. But the idea that any political party has some kind of right to perpetrate a fraud on the American people, and the public airwaves have a duty to be an unwilling conduit of that fraud on the American people is personally offensive to me, and it should be offensive to everyone. I know it would be offensive to Superman who always fought for Truth, Justice, and the American Way.
Any Republicans demand censorship of your side???????????
Speak up, Fascist.
Every one of our Constitutional rights has limits
The Constitution also limits what the government can do. They, the illegitimate administration, are abusing their power.
You're already in a hole so my suggestion is to stop digging. Joe Biden was legitimately sworn in on Jan 20, 2021 which was the same day that future former president Trump flew down to Florida. After all, if he truly believed he had won the election, he could have tried to put up a fight beyond the court cases he and his lawyers files, and all of which he lost. Despite Trump's rhetoric, he knew he had lost.
Now, if you think that Biden is abusing his power, feel free to donate your money to anyone of countless groups who would be all too happy to file a court case as long as you are paying for it and paying their salaries, as well. Get all of your friends to contribute money. I'm sure that Stephen Miller will accept every dollar you send them. Just don't be surprised if a fair amount of that money is used to send out additional letters requesting donations. Give 'til it hurts. They might even toast you when they go out to dinner at a swanky DC restaurant on an expense account which is funded by your contributions.
Could I please change the rules like the corrupt assholes did to steal this election. Can I selectively administer justice based on mob rule? Can I censor people who lie instead of those who tell the truth?
You people do not do things legally. You circumvent every law in your way. Going through legal channels in our justice system is futile. This illegitimate administration is also above the law.
Conservatives like you keep on claiming that the election was stolen, but you never provide any evidence that holds up under close scrutiny or in a court of law. Why is that?
Do you know what I think. I think that there are plenty of people who say this because they know they're expected to say it. But when I see and hear posters who say it with what appears to be genuine passion, I kind of feel sorry for you guys because it's clear that the people who are BSing you don't respect you at all. They see you as little more than useful idiots who they can manipulate at will for any purpose they so choose. You're their puppets, and they dance you out when they want to put on a show, and that's pretty much anytime they please.
For God's sake, stop making fools of yourselves!!!
How can you say that when you see the Democrats block any audits they can. Until now they have been successful. You are stupid if you think this election was not stolen. It is like they have shirts that say they are guilty.
Let me take a wild guess here. If Democrats were performing the audit without any participation from Republicans, what would conservatives say? My guess is that conservatives would say that Democrats were attempting to hide the fraud.
Consequently, it's a puzzle as to why Republicans think that they should be allowed to perform an audit alone because it gives the very strong impression that Republicans have ulterior motives and don't want Democrats to be able to observe what they're doing.
This is one of the reasons that banks don't let one person count out large sums of money in private without a confirmation of the amount from a second person.
They are not preforming it alone. The Democratic SOS has observers there. You are uninformed. Come back when you are.
