I’m never gonna watch those shows I don’t care that they’re left leaning Hollywood elite jerk off sessions. I don’t watch. I don’t care that they exist leave them alone.
There are biases everywhere in our world so what if late night talk shows are are critical of half the government?

God, they just keep forcing institutions to lie and then being surprised when they stop being culturally relevant.

The FCC has no authority over the Daily Show. This wouldnt apply to it.

I have a better idea: let’s revive the Fairness Doctrine.

The FCC has no control over cable TV like Comedy Central shows or shows on past 10 PM like Jimmy Kimmel. Like everyone associated with Trump, he’s full of hot air.

I haven’t watched the Daily Show in awhile but I remember how they used to often invite conservatives on for interviews and made them look like absolute idiots so I have a feeling this could backfire. When your entire party is made up of the dumbest, most embarrassing people imaginable, do you really want them doing *more* interviews?

Since when does the FCC hold an iron grip on satire?

Is this just for interview time?

What fucking “equal time rules”
The Fairness Doctrine died in the 1980s

Did Fox News gets this ‘fair time rule’ notice?

That Kimmel can cry over Charlie Kirk, that Colbert can host Ted Cruz without eviscerating him is more than Republicans deserve.
What? Are they expecting The Daily Show to have a conservative correspondent warning about white genocide?

So Regan ended the equal time rules and now they are bring it back so they can it back so they can spread their hate and bullshit?

Oh just drop the facade already. Call ICE the Secret Police, the media “State Media”, detention centres “Concentration Camps”, and just call Trump Chancellor FFS.

Why would a comedy show have to give “equal time” to anyone? And for that matter, what would even qualify as “equal time” in a comedy context? Like if they do 15 minutes of comedy, they have to do 15 minutes of drama?
