PS I ought to say, despite my saying that journalists of my generation
ignored most of what they were taught at school, that "equal time" is
something actually observed in practice in all the newspapers I've worked
for (all three dailies here, past and present, various mags and local rags).
You will see it in operation in any legal dispute, in particular. It is not,
in itself, a bad thing.
