broadcast bands or cable? Or even some of both? My problem is not ideological. It's security. If everything comes via cable, it doesn't really matter. But to broadcast over the air anti-American sentiments in a hostile foreign country just doesn't seem too bright. And trashing the President can too easily be construed as anti-American.
