Governor Mario Cuomo described his opposition to the “Fairness Doctrine” which was likely to be proposed again in Congress. The doctrine would ensure that licensed broadcasters would air opposing viewpoints on controversial issues. He believed that the U.S. should have “freedom of the media,” not just freedom of the press.
