What are the issues when media doesn't take ads? Private media (e.g., a newspaper, a web site) can't be compelled to say, or not say, anything by the state, and so can freely exercise arbitrary editorial control over adverts.
What about when the medium is a State-granted monopoly of a resource like RF spectrum? Or cable infrastructure? Should *these* media channels be *compelled* to accept any privately-funded ads, first come first served, *because* of this State-granted monopoly?
