This headline is terrible. It's phrasing it as if the FCC has a choice. It doesn't. It works at the behest of the government which has changed due to the election.

It sucks but if you don't like it and you didn't vote Clinton it's your fault.



It does still have a choice. While the election is done the government doesn't change until next year, specifically Jan 20 for the executive branch.

On the other hand, it is a pretty standard practice when administrations change over, same happened for Bush->Obama and Clinton->Bush.


Most people (who voted) did vote Clinton.


Most? No.

Slightly more people who voted, voted for Clinton than for Trump. Also, more people voted "someone other than Clinton" than voted for Clinton.

And, in fact, none of that matters. Trump carried enough states to win the election, under the rules that governed the election.


Sorry, you are right. I meant that Clinton has the most votes. Not that most people voted for Clinton.
