During times of grave emergency, the powers granted and reserved by the federal government remain unaltered in order to avoid shortsighted solutions that would, in the long run, be worse than the current crisis. In the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, the most costly natural disaster in US history, the Federal Communications Commission imposed a shortsighted resolution that tested the boundaries of its authority. Most scholarship on the Takings Clause deals with its conduct aspect, and legal journals are filled with commendable efforts to determine the point at which a government regulation becomes a compensable taking. This Note, however, concentrates on the property aspect of the Takings Clause and attempts to determine the point at which an intangible interest becomes compensable "pri...

Recently, several members of Congress operating under the misnomer of "progressive," urged reinstatement of something called "The Fairness Doctrine." Before explaining why this is a terrible idea, let's review some history. The Federal Communications Commission introduced The Fairness Doctrine in 1949. When presenting controversial issues of public importance, broadcast licensees were required to do so in a balanced manner. There was no "equal time" requirement, but broadcasters were supposed to give sufficient time to both sides of an issue so that the listening public would not be uninformed.
