It's somewhat of a tough case, IMO. Mostly because, if I understand correctly, the broadcast networks are using broadcast frequencies owned by the US Government. In that case, can't the government decide on what should be aired on its property?

Why doesn't the US government claim to own the letters in the alphabet? Then it can decide what gets to be published.
