Which is why the affiliates said they would drop him, and ABC suspended him. The system worked as it should.

If it had just been Sinclair and Nexstar complaining to ABC, that would have been a situation that networks have dealt with before. The system did not work as it should because the new chairman of the FCC was not letting the market decide what would happen, but instead was making uninformed threats.

Sinclair has decided to preempt his show for their 38 affiliates. Hoping for some Andy Griffith or Twilight Zone reruns. Even some Hee Haw would be a step up.

Brian Kilmeade on FOX said homeless people should be killed by involuntary lethal injection and nothing happened to him. That's not inflammatory? The FCC doesn't seem to care about that, an actual call for killing people.
