Forced ads?

said by BBR:
Or should cable companies be forced to run telco political ads?


When is a cable company (or any media outlet for that matter) forced to run any ads? Welcome to our free market society - companies can choose to take ads if they want to.

The only thing broadcast companies are forced to air are PSAs (Public Service Announcements), but even then the airtime required is very minimal. Most air them at the very start and end of the broadcast day.
