Interesting. According to a Google News search, none of the articles on Julius Genachowski, Obama’s pick to head the Federal Communications Commission, mention the Fairness Doctrine. The issue has been mentioned in the online comments section underneath several news stories, but no one on the FCC or Obama administration beat has had Genachowski’s position regarding that issue on their radar.

Obama opposes reinstating the Fairness Doctrine for broadcasters; many congressional Democrats have spoken out in support of it.
