Station challenges equal time rule by FCC
A York County radio station challenged the fairness doctrine before the U S Supreme Court alleging the requirement to provide free reply time for individuals attacked on broadcasts stifles free speech. The case stems from a 1964 Hargis broadcast about Fred Cook, with Cook seeking a reply and the station demanding payment, a point disputed by the FCC and supported by lower court rulings.
