“This is why the FAIRNESS DOCTRINE is makign a resurgence.”

Not at all. The reason it is making a resurgence is that the MSM doesn’t want to allow anyone else to contradict their lies and have any alternative to reading ONLY their biased reporting.

With the Fairness Doctrine, FR would have to allow equal time to DU posters posting right here, and Rush Limbaugh would have to spend equal time praising Obama.

Yes, that’s exactly my point. The MSM is coming to the end of their influence, as this abysmal Obama campaign is indicating.

Therefore, the Fairness Doctrine is their only life preserver if they want to maintain influence. Can’t have all those talk radio listeners and internet investigators thinking for themselves now...
