So let me get this straight - you want to go from a system where:

- the government hands out money to the media - the law says that they need to give it to everyone without political discrimination - if they try to withold funding, you can sue them and probably win

To a system where:

- if you have a ton of money, you can be a media outlet - if you don't have a ton of money, get fucked

I'm struggling to see how the latter is better for anyone other than rich people who want to influence the masses.
