Thanks for demonstrating that I am in no way grasping at straws.
No. You are insisting ( or wishing) that presenting both sides of an issue is one of those requirements.
That is not true.
I posted the basics to indicate your assertion is incorrect.
You may think radio and tv stations have a responsibility to present both sides of an issue, but they do not.
Look, you're not going to get your way unless government either takes control of the airwaves and tightly regulates content. That is not going to happen.
Passage of any kind of fairness doctrine is politically unpalatable. At this time with so many (23 to be exact) vulnerable Senate seats now in the hands of Democrats.
Passage of such an objectionable piece of legislation is a sure fire way for a democrat politician to become an ex-politician.
So your side can whimper and whine about how unfair and miserable the radio world is and that and 50 cents will get you a pay call. Case closed.
