    Sadly, that’s a first amendment right. And the government grants the license so it’s a pretty open/shut case the license should be renewed.

    However, I draw issue with presenting opinions and falsehoods as “news.” News implies truth. Maybe shows that only pretend to be news should be forced to have a disclaimer beforehand. We already have disclaimers for plenty for media that don’t really need it.

    Knowingly presenting opinions and falsehoods as facts/truths should have consequences too. Though, that’s hard to prove.
