Description

Can the Fairness Doctrine and the First Amendment coexist? Do the regulatory powers of the Federal Communications Commission constitute government censorship, endangering our eroding freedoms by setting up a kind of Big Brother as editor? How should-and how can-a democratic nation properly balance the conflicting rights of a free press, the public right to hear robust, uncensored debate on the airwaves, and the individual's right to be heard?--from dust jacket, inside front cover.
