Daniel Shays may have sold off half his land to pay off his debts or his family's debts. 

Massachusetts was Daniel Shays home. In this area, a lot of farmers were in debt and others find it difficult to pay off their debts. Those who were unable to pay their debts were sent into prison, making life more difficult for the farmers and their families.

natima [27]

Fairness Doctrine is the name of the doctrine which a Federal Communications Commission required for broadcasters who air programs on controversial issues to provide time for opposing views. This doctrine was then ceased to be enforced in 1985 by the FCC.

<h3>What is the Fairness Doctrine?</h3>

The Fairness Doctrine of the United States Federal Communications Commission was introduced in 1949. It was a policy which required the broadcast license holders to present controversial issues of public importance. They were also required to do this in such a manner that different and contrasting viewpoints could be fairly reflected.

The reason why it was ceased to be enforced was because the FCC realized that there were many radio and TV stations, which represented all the differing viewpoints on controversial issues.
