Another crackpot letter to blog editor

Editor:

If the Democrat party becomes completely in control next year needed change may be in the air. The Fairness Doctrine may finally restore fairness to the public's airwaves.

Right now most AM talk radio broadcasts conservative views over our public airways. That's fair? Many people are not conservatives. Conservative talk programming is only on the air since advertisers think people listen to it and make their ad buys accordingly.

Currently most religious radio broadcasts Christian views over our public airwaves. That's fair? Many people follow other traditions or no traditional at all. This programming is only on the air since contributors donate money to support it.

Finally, many community radio stations (as opposed to public radio like Wisconsin Public Radio) broadcast with a liberal slant over our public airways. That's fair? Many people aren't liberals. This programming is on the air since contributors and even your federal tax dollars support it.

In the novel 1984 everyone was equal but some people were more equal than others. Exempting some broadcasters from fairness regulations will mean everyone is fair but some stations are more fair than others. That's fair?
