On the next Your Call we'll talk about the Fairness Doctrine. The doctrine, initiated in 1954 and abolished in 1987, dictated that public broadcast license-holders had a duty to present important issues to the public and to give multiple perspectives while doing so. What would a fairness doctrine look like if we brought it back today? Join us live at 10 or send us an email at feedback@yourcallradio.org. What kind of "balance" does the media owe its audience? It's Your Call, with Rose Aguilar and you.
Guests:
Tim Giago, editor of Native Sun News
Craig Aaron, managing director of Free Press
Dave Johnson, fellow with Campaign for America's Future, the Commonweal Institute, and senior fellow with Renew California
