The thing is the type of “data” they claim to be seeking should be evident by the output of these news organizations. Read, watch, or listen to the stuff...it tells anybody what they want to know about ‘prioritization philosophies”!

Why would the government want to “police” its commie sponsors?

The study's inquiry included questions such as: "What is the news philosophy of the station?" and "Who decides which stories are covered?"

The FCC is required by law to conduct such research studies...

Really? Since when has it been required by law to ask broadcasters about "What is the news philosophy" and "Who decides which stories get covered?" I've never heard of this law.

. . . "the agency "has no intention of regulating political or other speech of journalists or broadcasters."

Yes, from the same regime that told us:

- if you like your healthcare, you can keep it.
- if you like your doctor, you can keep him/her.
- the average family will pay $2500 per year less.
- the IRS did not target conservatives.
- we did everything possible to save our people in Benghazi.
- the NSA is not spying on US citizens.

It's a frightening situation when your government lies to you so much.

It's even more frightening when something like 40% of the population likes being lied to.
