A couple of weeks ago, I published a post that divulged the Oklahomans who had made Barack Obama's short list for Vice President. Honestly, I had planned to leave my discussion of the number two position at that, but then I received an angry email from Tony who claims to be an expert on political science.
He made the argument that our being ranked as the #5 most influential political blog in Oklahoma by BlogNetNews.com made us a legitimate member of the media. Then, because of this, he claimed that we are subject to the Communications Act of 1934, meaning we at TheLostOgle are now required to give equal coverage to Obama's opponent, John McCain. Being that I checked with my lawyer, who posts as "Lrng2luvlaw" and his only advice on the matter was "McCain sucks". I took that to mean Tony has a point.
