Waxman: We're Not Investigating Talk Radio
WASHINGTON -- October 11, 2007: After conservative publication The American Spectator ran a report in its "Prowler" feature claiming Rep. Henry Waxman (D-CA) had initiated an investigation into conservative talkers Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, and Mark Levin with an eye to bringing back the Fairness Doctrine, Waxman is calling the report "completely false."
"There is not now, nor has there ever been, any investigation of this subject," Waxman said in a statement. "The American Spectator should immediately retract its report and apologize for the confusion its fictitious report has caused."
The Spectator story featured a quote from a "House leadership source" saying about the alleged investigation, "We don't have as big a megaphone as these guys, but this is all political, and we'll do what we can to gain the advantage." The publication is standing by its story.
