Answer to Question 1

The fairness doctrine was an FCC policy from 1949 until 1987 . This doctrine required broadcasters, as a condition of getting their licenses from the FCC, to report controversial issues in their community by offering balancing viewpoints. In 1984, the Supreme Court finally concluded that the rationale underlying the doctrine was flawed and that the doctrine was limiting the breadth of public debate in FCC v. League of Women Voters, 468 U.S. 364 (1984).

Answer to Question 2

False
