À propos de ce contenu audio

In 1986, a floodgate opened, changing radio forever. The FCC rescinded the “fairness doctrine” which eliminated the requirement to broadcast “contrasting points of view” on American broadcast TV and radio airwaves. A variety of radio hucksters began preaching conspiracies and lies as facts and paved America’s path to social division. The Death of Fairness is a story shining a spotlight on the impact of this decision that hits a little too close to home and is based on actual events.

As a prophet for one of the biggest advocates to rescind the doctrine, program director Fred Handson was sent to a small American city to replace the local hometown disc jockey on K-River, the only radio station in town. Fred filled the airwaves with national radio shows hosted by men who discovered a monetary payoff to espousing unsubstantiated facts, touting the new “freedom of speech” caused by the rescinding of the fairness doctrine, allowing lies and talk of conspiracies, without debate, resulting in tension and divisiveness in the town.

Will the small town values of the community be jeopardized by this radical change with the local radio station?
