Rare ALS as president signed “Ron,” one page, 5.5 x 3.5, White House letterhead, no date. Letter to legendary Chicago broadcaster Ward Quaal. In full: “I vetoed the ‘Fairness Bill.’ Bob Byrd pulled a little parliamentary trick & sent the vetoed bill back to committee—without allowing a vote to override because I had the votes to sustain the veto. He may try to attach it to some other legislation & if so I’ll veto it again.” Cloth-matted and framed with the original mailing envelope, addressed in Reagan’s hand. In fine condition. The ‘Fairness Bill’ was a policy which required broadcasters to present divergent views on controversial topics. Reagan saw this as ‘antagonistic to the freedom of expression guaranteed by the Constitution.’
