AC - Fairness DoctrineTournament: TFA State | Round: 2 | Opponent: Memorial David DXu | Judge: Rodrigo Paramo 1AC – PlanPlan – Democracies ought to apply the Fairness Doctrine to members of the free press as per our solvency advocate.The plan forces broadcasters to abide or recognize content as entertainment which would increase marketplace diversity and combat disinformation.Murphy, William. "We Hold These Distruths To Be Self-Evident: How Legal History Could Save America From Itself." St. John's Scholar. 2021. https://scholar.stjohns.edu/jga/vol2/iss2/3/. The plan empirically solves public mistrust in media and reduces bias.Klein, Ian. "Enemy Of The People: The Ghost Of The F.C.C. Fairness Doctrine In The Age Of Alternative Facts."

Fairness and education are voters – debate's a game that needs rules to evaluate it and education's why schools fund debateMaking demands on the state doesn't reaffirm the state's legitimacy.Newman 10 Saul Newman 10, Reader in Political Theory at Goldsmiths, U of London, Theory and Event Volume 13, Issue 2 | 3/11/22 |
