Blame Reagan.
Back in the Cronkite Era the Fairness Doctrine insured that anytime a station put on an editorial it had to provide equal time to the opposing point of view.
Reagan deregulated the FCC and made it easier for big companies to own and operate radio and TV stations. And he made sure that the emerging cable companies could put on anything and call it ‘news.’





It’s amazing how people are still angry with Ronnie just because he destroyed the middle class and imported tons of cocaine.
