Irony Of The Day

The New York Times in an editorial today riffs on First Amendment rights today, saying that the FCC should allow the occasional "fuck" or "shit" in the name of free speech, and urging the next president to appoint FCC commissioners "with a greater respect for the First Amendment."

Gee, I wonder if that means that the NY Times will oppose the reinstatement of the Fairness Doctrine on First Amendment grounds if Obama and the Democrats try to impose it?

We all know the answer to that, don't we? And if we question this, they'll throw Emerson at us: A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds.
