the FCC does suck, but this is one of the few things that they didn't screw up on. The airwaves are considered public property and TV stations get licenses to use it on the condition that they provide public-good programming in addition to the crap they put on most of the time. I mean, they have 165 other hours of programming to do what they want with. Why do we think the FCC sucks because they're saying for just 3 hours a week they should put on something educational instead of a rerun of Cops?
And you'd be shocked at what qualifies as educational. Teletubbies counts, so it's not like they even have to put any effort into it.
