Fairness Doctrine

When I heard Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld complaining to Jim Lehrer about “negative media coverage” I said to the television, be careful what you wish for. Back in the Reagan years y’all wanted to deregulate everything. One of the agencies y’all cut loose was the FCC. And President Reagan vetoed legislation that would have put the fairness doctrine into law.

Now you whine about the media not portraying your side in a good enough light.

Well what did you expect when you removed the fairness doctrine from the regulations?
