I don't like ClearChannel for being a heavy-handed conglomerate, and I don't like Viacom for being political censors after so many years of exhorting young people to be politically active through "Rock the Vote".

It reminds me of a schoolyard fight between two bullies. I want to see the Phys Ed. teacher come out and beat both of their asses.

Edit: Sorry, MoveOn.org doesn't have a front page link to the petition I was mentioning anymore. In short: Viacom executives rejected a political ad that was to run during the Super Bowl because it was "too controversial". The ad was paid for by the public (including the advertising costs to air a commercial during the Super Bowl), and featured children working low-income jobs, with the question at the end: "Guess who's going to pay for Bush's $3 trillion defecit?"
