Anywhere it can be said that “Hamsher was a voice of reason at times during the roundtable” has to be a totally wacked-out place.

A guy who’s made billions as a capitalist funds an organization called “Free Press” that wants to dismantle capitalism so everyone can get to the internet that’s controlled by very large government spending.

Yeah, that makes sense.

C’mon, you know the type — Soros has made his pile, he’s pulling up the drawbridge behind him.

And, when all is just smoking rubble, Soros will at least own the smoking rubble.

“Reformers” here is shorthand for “reformers in the Marxist sense of the word.”

Crush Progressive ideas and thoughts–before they crush free speech on the Internet.

I despise Hamsher et al. as much as anyone, but… basically, the phone and cable TV companies, beneficiaries of government-granted monopolies, have the broadband market cornered in most places. Once upon a time there was justification for multiple communications media, but now, it’s all bits–but the phone companies (even cell phone) and cable companies want people to have to buy both their dinosaur media and internet service as long as they can force it to happen. There is an inherent conflict of interest in being both a content provider and a bandwidth provider–hence you have idiocies like “TV Everywhere”, which lets you get TV online… but only if you also subscribe to cable, or the infamous Canadian ISPs that give preferential treatment to their VoIP services.

Typical left-wing a*holes…. the problem is always freedom and the solution is to give them control. I wish they’d all move to North Korea so they can be part of a society more to their liking.
