    Absolutely not. The fairness doctrine legislates censorship. Why would you want to trust an agency of government to determine what is considered fair or unfair?

    Think 3rd party for 2024 folks. Clean up America.

    Once I tell you that we agree to disagree there will be no more discussion between us in the thread so please don't waste your time continuing to argue your points because I will not respond.

    Government is not to be in the business of determining what is fair or unfair. The fairness doctrine would only be an obstacle to free and open debate or a free presentation of your views.

    It is a dangerous idea.

    How do you think that the other side even compares? Again, all the Alphabet New Sources Lean left, and over 80% of Newspapers around the Country lean left. With all the major ones pimping out Democrat Propaganda.

    You have Fox News on the Right and Sinclair TV Broadcast. Less than 30% of Newspapers.

    The liberal fixation with reinstating the fairness doctrine is all about the conservative explosion on AM talk radio. That is the one area liberals can't dominate for whatever reason.

    In which they are doing everything they can to shut down AM talk Radio. Most Demos avoid being interviewed. Afraid of the Hardball questions and just can't say whatever out their mouths.

    They aren't happy with with dominating everywhere else. They are driven to silence the conservative view.

    Todd has been vocal about his disagreement over how Fox News handled mainstream media outrage over Sean Hannity’s relationship with Trump attorney Michael Cohen. However, political commentator Jeffrey Lord has chronicled conflicts of interest surrounding Todd and his wife, who is a Democratic political consultant.
    Radio hosts Sid Rosenberg and Bernie McGuirk started their chat with Todd by admitting their friendship with Hannity, which resulted in the “Meet the Press” moderator claiming his beef was with Fox News for not forcing Hannity to explain his relationship with Cohen whenever the subject comes up.

    “Just in the same way that any time that I’ve interviewed somebody that my wife has professionally worked for, I let people know,” Todd said.
    McGuirk fired back, “Some say you haven’t done that all the time.”
