Absolutely awful idea. Bad for creativity, people besides Britney/Justin getting airplay, different points of view getting air time, etc. Add nixing net neutrality, and I might as well get cans and wire.

If you ever really want to know about what is going on in your country, read a newspaper from another country. That's what my uncle always told me. He was sure that our government controlled what we read here.

I quit reading newspapers a long time ago. It's the "internets" for me!
