Here's a letter we sent to the following two congressmembers. We encourage you to do the same:
"
Thank you for introducing the Fairness and Accountability in Media Act. Democracy cannot function without an informed citizenry, and the absence of the Fairness Doctrine (which was even supported by Newt Gingrich and Jesse Helms) has given rise to propaganda mills such as Rush Limbaugh and the Fox News channel, to the detriment of America and of the world. We recognize, applaud and support your efforts to re-introduce fairness and accountability into the media.
"
