: Seems that on some stations at some hours, government PSAs are 3 of 4 ... or 4 of 4 ... spots played. Does this trouble anybody re the free speech implications? Isn't it possible these can be doled out politically (ie reward friends/punish enemies)?
Not likely. Most of the time PSAs are dragged into syndicated shows when your'e trying to stay on time and most of the time you don't even pay attention to what PSA you're dragging you're just looking at the length and finding one that matches the time you need to fill.
