13. I think this is one of the best points for not bringing back the Fairness Doctrine...
the anachronistic factor. The Fairness Doctrine was relevant when there were few channels on TV, just a few radio stations in every market, and the Internet did not exist.

With cable television, satellite radio and the Internet, we now have almost limitless points of view to debate. Both sides of almost any argument can be found. The Fairness Doctrine simply isn't necessary anymore.
