There is an "extended" version of the interview on Youtube; it's 40 minutes.
CBS also posted what they say is the full transcript of the interview.
Both are from CBS, so "full" and "extended" are not necessarily the same as "unedited", but its more than was aired.
They're two different things.
The Fairness Doctrine was an FCC policy introduced in 1949 and was in effect until 1987. It was intended to "promote the public interest" by exposing audiences to diverse viewpoints on important matters of public concern. It was not limited to political candidates or elections. This is what Reagan
The Equal Time rule is a different policy that applies specifically to political candidates, defined in Section 315(a) of the Communications Act of 1934. It requires that broadcast licensees must permit equal use of broadcast facilities to all legally-qualified candidates for political office, and that the licensee may not censor the candidates' messages.
THIS. Measles is one of the most highly-infectious diseases known to us. It has an R0 (a measure of how easily it spreads) of 12 to 18 - roughly speaking, if an unprotected population (unvaccinated, and haven't already had it) is exposed to measles, roughly 90% of them will develop it. It has an incubation period of 7-10 days (time after exposure), and a person can spread the virus up to four daysbeforethe rash appears.
By the time little Sally's mother calls you to tell you Sally has the measles and little Bobby has been exposed to it, there's a really good chance Bobby is well on his way to developing a case. At that point, it's too late.
The part that most vaccination refusers forget about the "my rights" argument is that rights come with obligations. You may have the right to not protect yourself against a preventable disease, but if you're going to interact in person with other people, you have an obligation (to society, at least) to take appropriate steps to prevent infecting them with the disease.
That's not what CPB does. They provide funding to public broadcasting stations; they don't produce programming, and they don't run any public broadcasting stations.
Stations use money from CPB to keep the lights on and to purchase programming from NPR, PBS, and other providers such as American Public Media (APM) and Public Radio Exchange (PRX).

Wouldn't it be interesting if there was a requirement that ISPs who claim that an area is served when "just one home" is actually being served were then required to extend that service to the entire area? That might help with the "Oh, sure, we can add you, but it will cost you $40,000 up front" crap. After all, if they're claiming they serve the area, actually serving the area should be part of the normal cost of doing business - in other words, they should put up or shut up.
But if you let people change 5 into 10 on their own, where will it stop? Next they'll want to change 7 into 14, or even 11 into 22! Won't someone think of the children?
Just like a corporation! It's a "person" when that allows something to its benefit, but not a "person" when that would mean it could be penalized the same way a human "person" would be.
They choose "idealistic" names because they sound, well, idealistic. People who don't do their due diligence on the organization will see the name and think "Oh, this is a group that is focused on all the Good Things(tm)! I'm going to donate to them!".
H. L. Mencken said "No one in this world, so far as I know ... has ever lost money by underestimating the intelligence of the great masses of the plain people." Groups like these prove him correct.
I've been on a jury (for a two-week-long drug trial) where the judge had to instruct us to ignore some testimony. It was actually pretty easy to do that; during deliberation, if someone mentioned that part of the testimony, someone (usually a different person each time) would point out that we weren't supposed to consider that information, and everyone moved on in our discussion. It probably helped, of course, that there was a lot of other evidence for us to consider.
It's definitely been more common since GoT, but I remember reading it when I was in high school, which was 40+ years ago.
I guess true wisdom is ageless. :-)
I'm trying to remember where I read, years ago, that when you see the word "but" in a sentence, that's your clue that you can completely ignore everything that precedes it in the sentence.
Here we have the existence proof.

In addition to "Insightful" and "Funny", I think we need a "Sad but true" rating option.

Well, to be fair, that is three viewpoints....

That's why the drone will also carry air-to-surface missiles.

You had to go and remind them.... Now we'll get that one, plus a $4 "You pointed out that we forgot to charge you for something" fee.
