The Fairness Doctrine

[kraehe]

A few days ago, I stumbled across some ranting about the Fairness Doctrine.  Apparently, the right-wingnuts (Rush et al) are making a big fuss about how the Libruls are going to reinstate the Fairness Doctrine to take him and his ilk off the air.

I hadn't heard of such a proposal, because Obama never mentioned such a thing.  It's basically a fundraising tactic to scare their listeners into giving more money to defend against this phantom menace.
