FCC officially kills Fairness Doctrine, wiping it from rules

Quote:
Federal Communications Commission Chairman Julius Genachowski announced the elimination of 83 outdated and obsolete agency rules on Monday, including the controversial Fairness Doctrine.

?The elimination of the obsolete Fairness Doctrine regulations will remove an unnecessary distraction. As I have said, striking this from our books ensures there can be no mistake that what has long been a dead letter remains dead," Genachowski said in a statement.
Now that corporations are "people" () and can invest in campaigns, get ready to be bombed with hate propaganda from both sides.
