Reply #92: Here's my fix - BAN POLITICAL ADVERTING ON FCC-LICENSED STATIONS AND CABLE Co's. [View All]

TV and Radio stations account for THE VAST MAJORITY of campaign spending.

Having an FCC license is a PRIVILEGE NOT A RIGHT. Having a license makes one subject to any number of regulations, including what they can't advertise (cigarettes for starters).

Cable companies are regulated as well.

Eliminate the need for broadcast advertising, and you've eliminated a big chunk of a prospective candidate's need for BIG MONEY.

Provide some equal air-time for all balloted candidates.

Oh, and BRING BACK THE FAIRNESS DOCTRINE.
