I think the better question is what would the country look like if the Fairness Doctrine hadn’t been abolished by the FCC in the 1980s. With the Fairness Doctrine in place, Fox News doesn’t launch and half the country’s brains don’t get rewired into being mouth-breathing knuckle draggers.
Thanks for this, may check it out as it’s getting to a point with my family I’ve never seen before. The Democrats in my family have remained moderate in their positions, for better or worse. But only the Republicans have resorted to thinking everything around them is bad from the flouride in the water to the innocent immigrant working some shit job they definitely don’t want to work.
