'''Essay:Fair and balanced is not part of the Conservative platform'''

Conservatism is wrongly interpreted and misunderstood by nearly all liberals. They wrongly associate the center-right media company Fox News with the conservative movement. The fair and balanced argument is the left's attempt to stiffle dissent of liberalism. Proclaiming the right must offer a fair and balanced viewpoint, they seek to have the liberal views as a necessary requirement to any debate.  This was never a requirement or a plank of the conservative movement. America may find many moderates accepting both positions, left and right. However, the Conservative movement adheres to certain priniciples that are non-negotiable.
