True or false (fairness doctrine)?

Democrats can, and will, use the Fairness Doctrine, making it legal to remove Sean Hannity from radio.





True or false?True or false (fairness doctrine)?
False. Obama has gone on the record that he doesn't want to reinstitute the Fairness Doctrine.True or false (fairness doctrine)?
False.


The stations which broadcast Hannity will have to also allow those who advocate the opposite views. This is unfair to the station, by making them broadcast something their sponsors reject, and the listeners do not support.


It is a way of forcing those views which do not generate sufficient followings (and thereby) revenues, to get a free ride on the tails of those programs which do.


Make the opposing views self sufficient and they will get their own slot, otherwise, their opinions are sidelined by a lack of demand and revenues.
First no one has actually signaled that the Fairness Doctrine will be re-instituted. Second the Fairness Doctrine does not make it legal to remove anyone from radio. It basically states that content must be balanced. Now I know if the Fairness Doctrine is reintroduced many conservative hosts will be removed from radio simply because station managers will opt for less controversial content rather than meet the demands this would impose on them. This truism doesn't change the fact that the answer to your question is false.
Yes the Democrats want to bring censorship to the US disguised as fairness. All those years of Democrats calling Republican Fascists and the Democrats are actually the Fascists.
True. At one time we did have the ';fairness Doctrine'; in place. Democrats will try to get it reenacted. Pellosi and Reed want it back. The Supreme Court may stop it. Republicans in the Senate may filibuster. It's going to be a crap shoot. If it is reenacted, they will use it to silence talk radio hosts like Hannity, Levin, Gallagher and Rush.
Its more economic strong arming stations to put less popular and losing revenue generators like ';Air America'; on the air.... forcing stations to lose money in ad revenue....





sad that it is more of the ';Government'; telling you what you need to listen too...and not the right to choose.
False, Sean Hannity and Fox are using the Fairness Doctrine to keep them on the air. It would be counter-intuitive for the Dems to use the Fairness Doctrine, because it will inhibit them from removing Sean and Bill.
they're gonna try.





they got cnn


abc


nbc


cbs


msnbs


vh1


mtv


npr


pbs


cspan


bbc


and countless liberal rags they like to call ';newspapers';.





conservatives have talk radio and Fox.





libs are such crybabies.
False. It will not remove an radio hosts. It just says that there must be equal time for opposing view points.





A very communist idea and threat to our free speech.
FALSE! Hannity is not going anywhere.
True. They may TRY. Also true; they will fail.
False.
