I am beginning to belive the single most important thing to do is bring back the Fairness Doctrine.. |
|
If we had a fair and truthfull media there would never be another Republican elected.
Channel surfing looking for actual news these days is a waste of time.

4. I don't see how it could happen in practice. |
|
The issue has become thornier over the last 40 years with the "airwaves" playing a smaller role in media.
More importantly, the purpose can be easily circumvented by ambiguity in what makes up a "contrasting" viewpoint. For example:
1) Rush insists Obama is a Muslim. 2) Obama campaign demands a contrasting viewpoint. 3) Rush gives airtime to some stooge who argues Obama is not a Muslim, but is weak on national defense.
Ad nauseum.
