DENNIS KUCINICH AND THE FAIRNESS DOCTRINE


Hot Air has video of Dennis Kucinich on Hannity & Colmes stumping for a reinstatement of the Fairness Doctrine. What's shocking about this video is that Alan Colmes appears as the voice of reason.

Forget the ideological argument over the Fairness Doctrine for a moment. In response to Kucinich's argument that we need to give a voice to other viewpoints, Colmes made the brilliant point that under the Fairness Doctrine in the 80s, radio stations had to deal with so much bureaucratic red tape to convince the government they were in compliance that after a while they would just give up and stay clear of controversial viewpoints, or change to a music format. The Fairness Doctrine not only silences conservative voices, it can silence liberal voices as well.
