    I upvoted you. But the fairness doctrine never covered cable tv or most AM talk radio opinion shows. And even where it did cover it was highly limited and largely toothless. Though I think we would have been better to keep it. It wasn’t some panacea that would have changed much. It didn’t stop the red scare propaganda etc that went unopposed for decades.
