Point is, the fact that he thinks he's got this power is frightening. Does the FEC have the power to approve or disapprove licenses for paid channels? Seems to me the answer is no for entities like HBO, but doesn't TNT, for example, have broadcast licenses? And if so, I wonder whether TNT would join in a challenge when that could risk the approval process for its acquisitions of further stations.

Worse, Stern* keeps saying he would have a great case if only the stations would challenge the fines- they don't. Who's to say that cable might not be similarly afraid.
*he says he's been fined for crap Oprah also said etc. The fines do seem pretty subjective.
