Who's going to file a challenge against this law. Or is the SC's word the last.

Alas, the Supreme Court is where challenges end up. That means holding your nose next November and voting for Bush in the hope that he will appoint another Scalia or two, and then the Constitution can be restored, if the new justices are willing to ignore stare decisis in the interest of Justice. Getting Congress to repeal it is (a) hard (because the CFR law bolsters incumbents) and (b) unsatisfying because the Constitution would remain weakened.

Of course, the other way is the 1776 way. Refresh the Tree of Liberty! Violate it and meet enforcement with force!

Well, perhaps some intrepid TV broadcaster and some advocacy group will have the cojones to violate this law next year within the 60 day ban.

Being arrested for that may have a stimulative effect in rethinking such draconian measures; such as a perp walk for a broadcast exec or director of that group.

However, with the FCC's Damocles sword of license renewal hanging over the broadcasters, I doubt, though hope, this will happen.
