Last thoughts on the Fairness Doctrine....

[radiotony]

And, with a newspaper, you can start a new one up any time you want to
create competition. 
You can't do that with radio or television. Once wi-fi gets more prevalent,
we might see
greater competition. We already do with online and satellite radio. But it
isn't the same, as we all know.

No other medium uses the public airwaves....so it should not be treated as 
any other medium.

With newspapers, you (privately) own the ink, paper and printing press.
