Answering a question:
Do you think the end of the Fairness Doctrine played any part at all [in the rise of disinformation.]
I think the repeal of the fairness doctrine was part of the move toward partisan media (Reagan removed it and then right wing radio took off) so it's easy to think one caused the other and that restoring the Fairness Doctrine would help.
I don't think the Fairness Doctrine would solve the problems we have.
I don't think removing it caused the problems . . .
