Cute, I guess, but not accurate. The FCC is telling the companies to come up with a way for customers to CHOOSE (you libertarians love that word) which channels are available in their homes--and which will not be available, especially since some of those that come with available packages now are grossly inappropriate for youthful viewers. It makes great sense, except to bilious old farts libertarians.

"The FCC is telling the companies"

Ok, so we've identified the problem...

"It makes great sense, except to bilious old farts libertarians."

It makes great sense to those who can't get enough Big Guv.

How quickly we forget his guidance.

The FCC is demanding they offer ala carte?

That is great! :)

The FCC just invented a couple of amazing new devices known as "an off switch" and "a channel selector"?
