The libs favorite weapon. Instead of open debate if someone disagrees with them, they either attempt to discredit their opponents or sometimes even attempt to criminalize their opponents point of view.

I wonder if the Weather Channel would be subject to the Fairness Doctrine if it was re-enacted. Probably just conservative talk radio would be forced to air opposing view points.

Well the network news certainly was not when the Fairness Doctrine was in effect before. So I would not expect anything masquerading as news would be subject to a reenacted Fairness Doctrine to be subject to it.
