the F.C.C. is the authority that hold the licence of each station in its power,they can suspend or at make it very hard on comcast
Comcast isn't a broadcaster like ABC, NBC, KYW, WPVI, etc. They don't have a LICENSE from the FCC that can be suspended. What power the FCC has comes from the Congress when they deregulated cable TV. The power is relatively limited. And when a cable company hasn't liked what the FCC is doing they went to Federal court and won.

So, the FCC is pretty much a toothless tiger unless & until Congress passes new laws that changes that.
WRONG!!!

Don't show your ignorance by stating things you know nothing about! Congress specifically GAVE the FCC the power to regulate cable. There's an entire division of the FCC just FOR cable! have you ever heard of the cable bureau? Obviously not...
So they have a bureau that deals with cable companies. So what!! Their power is very limited and when they have exercised it, they got slapped down in court.
