New Rhode Island Governor Lincoln Chafee is implementing a new policy that bans state employees from speaking on talk radio shows while on the public clock. Because talk radio is "ratings-driven and "for-profit programming” the Governor believes it is wrong for state employees to promote these profit driven enterprises. Let me ask you a question Governor... Are you also going to ban state employees from appearing on "for-profit" TV news outlets or "ratings driven" TV talk shows? Absolutely not because the vast majority of TV talk shows and news outlets are left leaning in their views and hosts. This policy is clearly discriminatory and directed at right-leaning talk radio.
