"The President said imminent threat...the President said imminent threat...the President said imminent threat"

Is there anything in the FCC regulations that would allow citizens to file complaints against the networks based on the fairness rules (where the opposing side gets to make a statement) that could force the network guys to play the actual SOTU clip or read the actual sentence? Thousands of complaints from citizens for each incident (every news-type program on the networks where the newscasters or so-called journalists let someone repeat the lie without challenge) might have an impact if the networks were subject to fines for each affiliate that aired the segment. Each journalist should be required to immediately state "FCC regulations require me to read the actual quote."
