as some of you may or may not know the fairness doctrine is a big issue going around congress today,
there are many reasons for it, mainly truth is a higher goal then capitalism, and a view point shouldn't be censored bc one group can simply out spend the other.
and there are many reasons against it, mainly to protect freedom of speech, many news providers (both content and station) are produced for a purpose (i.e. religion, political) and no one should be forced to broadcast something that they don’t believe in
personally I’m against it bc if it passes all it will accomplish is insane, low budget, inadequate representation of the counter view point. So they are technically in the letter of the law, but with out any real communication of truth
