In other words, regulating cable because it has achieved a critical mass of market share, with no constitutional underpinning other than that we used to watch this shit over the airwaves.
After this last term, I have no idea what the Supreme Court will do. I thought I had them pegged, but they've done some amazing shit in non-1Ad cases that has scared both sides. Maybe Scalia secretly likes PPV topless Foxy Boxing and will go our way. It's a crapshoot.

You worry too much. This is no more going to happen than Gephardt's executive orders to over rule Supreme Court decisions.
