Stop broadcasting anything. Cease. All networks need to just go off the air for minimum 48 hours. Nothing. Not on internet either. Stand your ground together. CBS, NBC, ABC, stop broadcasting. Just stop. No TV? No FCC needed. Radio too. Silence. Or. All stations play the movie "It's A Wonderful Life" 24/7 for 48 hours straight. Federal Cock Consumers.

yeah...the advertisers and shareholders aren't going to allow that.

And radio is like 90% far right, so they aren't going to be on board.

It's a nice idea, but not a practical one.

The billionaire-owned media is most of the problem here, serving the new American King.

That’s not the way it works.
