Does the first amendment give an artificial person the right to monopolize any particular bandwidth of the public airwaves? If not, we can certainly take AWAY the bandwidth of any artificial person which operates against the interests of actual HUMAN BEINGS in our nation - can we not?

It was not long ago that salacious, yellow journalism was legally punishable. Was that a bad time in American history - should we be ashamed of the enforced journalistic standards of the 50s and 60s and 70s, before reagan and his successors pulled the FCC'S teeth?

And moron, CNN, and other cable networks, are NOT LICENSED BY THE FCC. They do not use the public airwaves. They are classified as a paid tv cable network. So whatever you hate reagan for doing has no effect on your argument.

In asking for CNN's "FCC License" to be "turned off" Stone misses a major point. The FCC confirmed to CR that CNN does not have an "FCC License." It is classified as a "paid TV cable network" that is not broadcast over the public airwaves. Therefore it is not subject to FCC licensure. -
