Everyone used to watch Walter
Cronkite. He was everyone’s news anchor.
And why was Walter Cronkite America's News Anchor? Because of the FCC Fairness Doctrine.
"The fairness doctrine of the United States Federal Communications Commission (FCC), introduced in 1949, was a policy that required the holders of broadcast licenses both to present controversial issues of public importance and to do so in a manner that fairly reflected differing viewpoints."
