Crazy idea. How about we force the government to only advertise with the news companies?
Unfortunately that may lead to a bit of a monopoly and advertisements would cost an arm and a leg.
However I would be all for that though, because the more an advertisement costs the less profit it will bring in and therefore less advertisements overall.
I just think they ought to know how it feels to be forced to subsidize an industry, out of their own pocket, against their will.
