This should worry every American who values the 1st Amendment, Freedom of Speech, and who understands the critical role of a diverse and independent free press in a democracy.

In an interview with MSNBC's Keith Olberman last night, Nancy Pelosi announced that she would move to bring a vote to the floor of The House of Representatives as early as next week to ban Fox from covering Congress.

I ask you, where is the ACLU?
