I still do not understand what type of "Broadcast License" the NBC network holds. As a previous FCC 1st Class Radiotelephone Operator's License holder I have never heard of a "public air wave" license being granted to a network who transmits their video/audio signals to their network affiliates via satellite, cable, or microwave. THEY ARE NOT USING PUBLIC BROADCAST LICENSED AIRWAVES (that I am aware of).

The TV networks have their “O-and-O’s.” These are the TV stations in major markets that the networks own and operate to make sure their product reaches that major market. The FCC is responsible for the licenses of these O-and-O’s, and that is where they may be vulnerable.

This is trolling as I doubt any national network would lose their license since there are too many courts that would step in. Why not take more direct action today, remove these networks from the White House?

.
To be “fair,” he should put all commercial broadcast licenses up for lottery grab.

Make an example of NBC. The rest will get the message.
