I don’t think it should be forced. I just think ethical people would require it. This isn’t a my side good. Your side bad. Both sides have done this.
It use to be the news was less biased and the opinion piece was biased
The bit about taking sides was a little defensive. I’m not trying to take a side here. You and I both have to deal with shitty “news” organizations in part because of what happened to the fairness doctrine. Everything you’ve been commenting in this thread about is because of that
Journalism use to be about the story. Now days it’s garbage. People should be given the information in the least biased method.
Yeah, that’s because the fairness doctrine was removed from application by the FCC, and congress’ attempt to codify into law was veto’d by Reagan.

Yes….because of the fairness doctrine. Once again it wasn’t perfect but the quality of the information was much better than it is today.
I’m not trying to take sides I just stated historical facts. Not sure why you’re getting defensive about it.
I’m not being defensive at all.

I didn’t say you took a side. The news has been taking sides
Cool thanks for clearing that up.
