No the fairness doctrine was very bad

Think “Affordable Healthcare Act,” “Patriot Act,” “Operation: Enduring Freedom,” “Social Security.”

All weasel words

Sorry but no. The news should be objective and that was the point of the FD.

No. If the fairness doctrine had still been around there would’ve been no Rush Limbaugh. No conservative voices to counteract the juggernaut stranglehold the left had on the media.

Getting rid of it is a good thing. Allowing it enables THE FUCKING GOVERNMENT to control and disseminate and control speech.

Who do you think would be the one deciding it under this doctrine? It would have been a regulatory agency full of the likes of Harris and AOC, oh and they would not be elected by the way but appointed.
