Take Boston as an example. TV and radio stations there broadcast over almost all of New England. It’s interstate commerce, the real kind, not the contrived kind.

There is nothing preventing the power of their broadcast being trimmed back to fit their state of origin OR there is nothing preventing their having to apply to multiple states to have their broadcast in each state.

Regulating interstate commerce doesn’t mean owning it...no more with the radio waves than with the highways.
