Somebody has to have the balls to challenge this under the 1st Amendment.*

I hate Howard Stern and agree with all of Clear Channel's objections to the content of the Stern show. However, I think this case demonstrates just how dangerous it is to allow such a concentration of licenses to the public airways in one company's hands.
So your 1st amendment argument is that since Clear Channel only did this to pre-empt state action, that invokes the 1st Amendment? Not saying it is a good or a bad argument. Just asking you if this is your argument for invoking the 1st amendment.
