Fairness Doctrine

I don't think the fairness doctrine would be able to work today. One thing is, I don't think too many jounalists would be happy about someone telling them what to write about. Next, there are millions of opinions out there. For instance, bloggers. Would the fairness doctrine apply to a blogger? How would we regulate all of them out there? Also, there are so many different ways to obtain information now. If you don't like what you are hearing and you believe it is too one-sided you can simply change the channel, get on the internet or grab a paper. I agree with Cory when he said the media works hard to deliver what people want instead of what they need. I definitely think that altering the way the media delivers news would cause a problem with ratings.
