Fairness Doctrine

I do not think that the Fairness Doctrine would work today, partly because it does not have enough backing to make it through Congress. People today have their sources where they get their news, whether from television, radio, or newspapers, people choose where to get the facts. They go where they like and that is all there is to it. I think the premise behind the argument is good, but it just will not work. I think that journalists try to get opposing views, but the argument here is that the Left Wing wants to be heard also, and they do not feel like they are. There is probably a reason for that since the highest ratings are coming from the Right Wing. People go where they like and that is all there is to it.
