It's not that the FCC doesn't regulate cable, it's that cable doesn't have broadcast licenses. No spectrum license to revoke.

The path to regulating a cable TV channel is not a straightforward one in the US. If it was, cable news a la Fox would have been in the crosshairs devades ago.

Voted 99-0 in the Senate.

Good job, Democrats. We know Republicans were pieces of shit, but the reason Democrats' polling is in the toilet is because of stuff like this.

Yeah, but only because "CBS" doesn't have a broadcast license, stations do.

Also, cable TV doesn't use "broadcast licenses", and IPTV & streaming certainly don't.

A lot of what Trump does makes sense when you realize his brain ossified in 1982.

Just reminding everyone that Lutke is a right-wing shitheel, and that he and Shopify explicitly platform, support and make money from Nazism.

Carry on.
