But the over-arching theme is getting government to fix the media. Columbia University President Lee Bollinger, whose school also includes the well-known and partly Soros-funded Columbia School of Journalism, is one of several speakers advocating for increased government funding for media. He called for federal funding of the media in a 2010 Wall Street Journal piece with the terrifying headline: "Journalism Needs Government Help." Bollinger pushed for the creation of a public media that combines NPR, PBS and Voice of America. He also wants to "end to the regulation of 'indecent' language and images in broadcast programming" and return to the Fairness Doctrine.
