9. From Long Experience, It Would Obviously Be
Insulting your primary election candidate of choice

In reality, though, offense is caused less by insulting any of these things and more by racial and gender stereotyping or other forms of bigotry.

If the media is so liberal, then why do conservative oppose the fairness doctrine?
