Question about Aah-nold's campaign
I apologize if this is a dupe. I checked and didn't see this addressed elsewhere, but I may have missed it.

If Aah-nold continues his run for gov, will TV stations have to stop broadcasting his movies until the election? If they broadcast one, will they have to give an equal amount of time to every other candidate? That could get pretty costly.

I'm certain this has come up before. With Reagan, obviously, but also with Clint Eastwood, and even Sonny Bono's TV shows.

God help them if Gary Coleman follows through with his candidacy. If "Different Strokes" is shown in syndication, that's 1/2 hour a day they'd have to match for each other candidate.

Any thoughts?

1. Print this out for future reference, this question comes up a lot.
Raygun ELIMINATED the Fairness Doctrine, there is no more "equal time for the opposing point of view". That has been dead for almost 20 years!

Welcome to the single biggest reason for the repug message permeating the airwaves. Fight the power!

bush* are a national disgrace (plural verb on purpose)
