Chris Dodd (D-CT), who just so happens to be the Chairman and CEO of the Motion Picture Association of America. <\/p>\n<blockquote><p><i>It is an irresponsible response and a disservice to people who rely on them for information and use their services. It is also an abuse of power given the freedoms these companies enjoy in the marketplace today. It\u2019s a dangerous and troubling development when the platforms that serve as gateways to information intentionally skew the facts to incite their users in order to further their corporate interests.<\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>\nHe is criticizing Google, Wikipedia, bloggers, and others for blacking out their sites or asking people to oppose SOPA and PIPA. This is rich coming from the likes of Dodd who represents an industry that is at its best entertainment and usually more akin to a well-oiled propaganda machine for the so-called progressives.<\/p>\n<p>You can find longer critiques of his comments <a href=\"http:\/\/www.unitedliberty.org\/articles\/9410-chris-dodd-thinks-anti-sopapipa-websites-are-abusing-their-power\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/hotair.com\/archives\/2012\/01\/18\/chris-dodd-these-anti-sopa-websites-are-abusing-their-power\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>And to give this a gun blog slant, he is the son of the author of the Gun Control Act of 1968, Sen. Thomas J. Dodd (D-CT).<\/p>\n<div style=\"margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;\" class=\"sharethis-inline-share-buttons\" ><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The quote of the day comes from that Friend of Angelo recipient of sweetheart mortgages, former Sen.
