I will go to my grave not understanding why Sirius and XM were allowed to merge. I understand the wastefulness of incompatible systems, but that argument just makes satellite radio a utility, in which case it should become a pipe and have no control over content.

Someone at the Antitrust Division was asleep at the dial. Nuts. Absolutely nuts. Instead of hammering her usual nail of white awfulness, Ms. M-M might consider suing SXM for abuse of monopoly power; firing a popular personality for political reasons seems to me an unreasonable restraint of trade.
