I heard today that $2.8 billion will be spent by political for advertising on network . Hmm. The frequencies on which is broadcast are considered to belong to us all, the “commons.” Consequently, our government grants the networks licenses to broadcast upon our airwaves providing they contribute the “public good.” How is it that political must raise millions from special interest parties in order to pay for ad over airwaves that belong to us all?
