Tom Brokaw: Chris Matthews, Keith Olbermann Have "Gone Too Far"

Mr Brokaw ... I have a question sir.



On September 5, 1983 you became the solo anchor of "NBC Nightly News with Tom Brokaw"



The following is from Wiki:



"In 1986, Judges Robert Bork and Antonin Scalia of the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit concluded that the Fairness Doctrine did apply to teletext but that the FCC was not required to apply it.[6] In a 1987 case, Meredith Corp. v. FCC, two other judges on the same court declared that Congress did not mandate the doctrine and the FCC did not have to continue to enforce it."



"In August 1987, the FCC abolished the doctrine by a 4-0 vote, in the Syracuse Peace Council decision, which was upheld by the Appeals Court for the D.C. Circuit in February 1989."

Mr Brokaw, as the anchor of "NBC Nightly News with Tom Brokaw" during the time the fate of the Fairness Doctrine was being determined ... how much air time did you and NBC devote to the story?



You see ... Chris Matthews and Keith Olbermann's brand of journalism is an offshoot of the Fairness Doctrine's demise ... if there is truly something wrong with their brand of journalism.



Obviously, I don't expect an answer.
