Do we need a new Fairness Doctrine?

As I was watching the Daily Show and Rachel Maddow last night, my always simmering rage at the Republican echo chamber grew and grew.

As I watched President Obama celebrate the new GI-Bill I thought, "this is Roosevelt-level Presidential leadership, but the 'pro-military' right-wing of the Republican Party will likely never even hear about the new GI-Bill." I guess it's the Dems fault, they should talk about it, but would it get coverage? It gets coverage by Rachel, but Fox would never cover it, what then about the others? Is it the media's fault - the blood-in-the-water / conflict-sells / 24-hours-to-fill / he-said-she-said mainstream media?

With a new Fairness Doctrine Fox News would be out of business, CNN wouldn't change that much, MSNBC wouldn't change much, just Keith, maybe Rachel. Even a modified Fairness Doctrine would be better than what we have now.
