The "Fairness Doctrine" made sure that all stations had to give a reasonable opportunity for both sides of the debate to give their opinion on public airwaves.

Introduced in 1949 by the Federal Communications Commission of the United States, the Fairness Doctrine required that Radio and TV stations had broadcast licenses to cover controversial issues that could interest society and aired opposing visions on the topic at hand. It produced many inconformities in broadcasting companies and after so many disputes the Federal Communications Commission revoked it in 1987.
