The FCC often acts on whim and bias. The Supreme Court, in most
cases, need not take a case unless it is interested, and while they do
read the newspapers, the record of other misfeasance and malfeasance
by the Red Lion station would not impact on their decision here.
Remember, too, that there was a separate appeal heard here of the
constitutionality of the codified personal attack rule brought by the
Radio and TV News Directors Association. One interesting fact is that
the RTNDA's case was argued before the Supreme Court by Archibald Cox.
