    I've noticed some LWNJs on this forum uttering "Fairness Doctrine" of late. Must be the latest issued talking point.

    No one has damaged the credibility of the media more than the Donald, an act typical of fascism you fucking retarded simpleton.
    Why do you hate freedom?
    It is the responsibility of every American citizen to own a modern military rifle.

    I remember what it was like when we had the fairness doctrine in place. When a political statement was made on tv, the other sides were entitled equal time to present their side. It was educational. The Libertarians, greens and other parties could get their say. It gave views that you might not encounter in your life. It had the potential to help 3rd parties get their information in the public. In short, the absolute opposite of Fox and right wing Gnus. I was disappointed when reagan killed it.

    The idea was partly that the people owned the airwaves and leased them to broadcasters. So the public had to be served. Ending it ,resulted in the right wing radio explosion and propaganda outlets like Fox and Infowars. Now the networks serve themselves and advertisers.

    Utter nonsense, the reason it was abolished is because it had the opposite effect of it's stated intent. You know, like all leftist policies.
