The Right of Reply Bill

On its face, the Right of Reply bill legalizes a right already recognized in practice by every self-respecting, ethical journalist: the individual’s right to air his/her side of the story. (Click here for both the House and Senate versions of the bill).
This is nothing but fairness, which is at the heart of every good journalistic piece. But not every journalist is fair, and not all stories are fair, say those who espouse and support the Right of Reply Bill.
But there are other problems with the bill, regardless of whether or not media is fair.
