3. Reinstatement of the fairness doctrine could only help Dems

the media is overwhelmingly slanted to the right. And if the Republicans believe in it so much, why did their deity, Ronald Reagan, eliminate it?

4. Obama does not support reinstating it.

Pelosi didn't let the republicans bring up an amendment that would have prevented reinstatement in the future.

Here's an article that explains it:

Basically, this is a fake issue that the right-wing talk show hosts are using to rally their fans against democrats. Just like liberals want to take your guns away, they now want to take your favorite radio show off the air.:eyes:
