I think if the fairness doctrine were applied solely to broadcast media (as it is described in aforementioned wikipedia link) then it works.
It's not a per-episode or per-program level, it's per-broadcaster. Also the fairness doctrine doesn't include (but worked in conjunction with) the Equal Time rule [1].
