Aww, come on, Glen, you can do better than this.  You are 
intentionally mis-stating what the Fairness Doctrine is about, in 
order to score some political points.  I love ya, I really do, but 
can we talk about radio and about what the Fairness Doctrine REALLY 
says, as opposed to the mythical right-wing talking points version of 
the Fairness Doctrine?  The FD never mandated 'tit for tat' 
programming, and it never said if you broadcast a rightie, you must 
immediately broadcast a leftie.
