It all depends on where you are. Here, for example. Conservatives are never silenced, because they are the majority. I see tons of pro-life and religious ads. Sunday morning TV is nothing but church services, even on cable (with a few exceptions, of course!). There are billboards and signs touting traditionally conservative values and causes. When politicians run for office here, they sling mud by calling their opponent "liberal". I wish I were kidding.
I can see that in other areas of the country that conservatives would feel silenced. Here, that's definitely not the case.
