38. Why, in the name of all that is holy, would you want to give the government the power to
determine what is "fair"?

And as you answer that, explain how it is a good idea to give that sort of power to a republican president (and there will be another one, eventually).

And explain why a regulated (important consideration) outlet would even bother airing political discussions?

And explain how it would affect those outlets that are left leaning ... do we have a government representative in the newsroom?

Jesus Christ, what a really lousey idea.
