Huh ? I thought the USA was the 'land of the free' ? You make it sound like a communist state. I live in the UK, but surely the US government can't regulate your news like that, can it ?
No, it can't, although there are a lot of arguments that certain broadcasting companies are too opinionated. People who are upset with the current situation try to make America look like some kind of facist nation under our current president, which isn't quite right. While you may not be satisfied with what the president is doing, it's not like we're turning into Nazi Germany at an alarming pace.
