Senator Debbie Stabenow, wife of prostitute paying Thomas Athans wants the Fairness Doctorine

This morning, radio host Bill Press brought up the recent closing of liberal station Obama 1260 when speaking with Michigan Sen. Debbie Stabenow, and talked about whether there needs to be a balance to right-wing talk on the radio dial.

BILL PRESS: Yeah, I mean, look: They have a right to say that. They’ve got a right to express that. But, they should not be the only voices heard. So, is it time to bring back the Fairness Doctrine?

SENATOR DEBBIE STABENOW (D-MI): I think it’s absolutely time to pass a standard. Now, whether it’s called the Fairness Standard, whether it’s called something else — I absolutely think it’s time to be bringing accountability to the airwaves. I mean, our new president has talked rightly about accountability and transparency. You know, that we all have to step up and be responsible. And, I think in this case, there needs to be some accountability and standards put in place.

BILL PRESS: Can we count on you to push for some hearings in the United States Senate this year, to bring these owners in and hold them accountable?

SENATOR DEBBIE STABENOW (D-MI): I have already had some discussions with colleagues and, you know, I feel like that’s gonna happen. Yep

You didn’t know her husband Thomas Athans?

Back in April of 2008, police were investigating an Internet-based prostitution ring when they stopped Stabenow’s husband, Thomas Athans, whom police believed had just met a prostitute at a hotel and paid to have sex with her, according to The Detroit News. Athans admitted to paying the 20-year-old woman $150 to perform oral sex on him.

BTW, heres another fun little game

then do the same with cnn: site:http://www.cnn.com/ debbie stabenow’s husband

If it were a Repubican Senator’s husband (or Sarah Palin’s SO) don’t you think CNN would be all over it like white on rice? Eh libs? Not very balanced on CNNs part.
