  He is the president, and the campaign is over. This is another "I'm telling you we have to do this now, or otherwise it will be too late" speech. ABC has decided to squash any possible criticism or alternate viewpoint by refusing opposition ads and paid programming time. I wonder what ABC shareholders will have to say about this. How will the fairness doctrine cheerleaders spin their way out of this.

    There is no spin necessary. If we had a fairness doctrine still the opposition could petition the FCC to to require ABC to allow them air time to rebut the story.
