It worked because with statewide franchising it took all the little towns and cities out of the extortion game where the local pols held things up unless their pet projects were funded.

"seems Indiana did it right, why can't you?"

The answer to that is as plain as the nose on your face. Look at the list of the top campaign contributors to Nancy Pelosi, Harry Ried, Hillary Clinton, Chuck Schumers and the rest of the current Democrat leadership in Congress...

Time Warner, Comcast, Viacom etc ... all those who have a vested interest in keeping their sleazy little monopoly intact.

The Family and Consumer Choice Act of 2007 has been stalled since June 07 and those in Congress who have their noses up Hollywood's butts won't let it move.

Did what right? Killed public broadcast of live meetings of legislative bodies? At least C-SPAN will not be as easy to kill.
