“In 1987, the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC) repealed the so-called ‘fairness’
doctrine. That policy required stations -- because they use the public
airways -- to present differing views on controversial issues. Since
repeal, there's been no requirement to balance talk radio's conservative
voices. Talk radio's audience has not been kind to liberal hosts.

religious groups, a flurry of pastors have turned their ire in on the

ELIZABETH GUILLORY TERRY was born in the same week as Dr. Martin
Luther King, Jr. (six years before “The Great Drum Major” for peace),
whom she dearly loved and considered her people’s greatest heroes.
Nevertheless, she found herself cast in the role of Coretta Scott King,
when she became an ideal preacher’s wife, insofar as she not only loved
Jesus, but all of God’s children.

“Children’s children are a crown to the aged and Parents are the pride
of their children.” “Gray Hair” is a crown to the aged; to live to see
one’s grandchildren is considered a great blessing. Parents are truly
the pride of their children.”

No news is good news for watchers on the wall |
|
African-AmericanNews &Issues, as African American’s watcher on
the wall, would be remiss if we didn’t make absolutely sure that our
audited estimated 2 million readers, in 30 Texas townships and unto
millions more accessing our Webpage (www.aframnews.com) each week,
understand why a low wattage AM radio station, targeting Black
consumers, is worth $10 million dollars to a major media
conglomerate with a dubious agenda.

TwiliteZone.com — Most of our community
leaders like Odessa Sayles, the Adopt A Black Child legend, not
only depend on African-American News&Issues to get their message
out, but to also take care of Black Houston’s business. We’re
flattered, but, alas, we only endorse the advertisers in our
MarketPlace section. Thus, we’re unable to recommend a Black
owned Security Company to hire for the National Association of
Black Social Workers when it holds its 38th National Conference
in Houston April 11 - 15, 2006.
