Idea for a law in regulation of Mainstream Media

This law of regulation is an expansion of the Libel Law. This expansion of the Libel law is that any News outlet that defines them as “Reporting of world and local events that are currently transpiring” can be charge a fine when the reporter says on air something that is irrelevant or simply a statement base on popular belief over actual facts on the matter at hand.

But, this law only applies to News Broadcast that report about current events local or worldwide, News Broadcast that define themselves for “Reporting under such subject of entertainment or current celebrities interviews”, example being E News.

The News Broadcast outlet that define themselves under the first definition can either work under this new law, or change their broadcast priories’/definition, and have to let that be known by means of stating this fact on the opening sequence scene before the introduction of the current broadcast topic opening statement made by the main or head anchorman/woman.

So, in effect, you want to make sure that general news casters stick to just facts, and if they want to include opinions and beliefs, they have to change the whole purpose of their channel to avoid being fined.

Basically you want to have better separations between channels with just facts, and channels with "everything else", right?

Its not entirely like that, you can use opinions, but only if they are relevant to the story.

It suppose to prevent situation like this for example,

Or rather how when the Boston Marathon bombing occurred, there were a couple of cases where the News Reporter was trying to get a head start, and made up a false witness, which was later discredited.

Or how one mother and her daughter received phones called from people who were up set about how her missing son, was responsible for the bombing. She kept up this Facebook page to see if anyone found him for some time now, and a bunch of people on Reddit tried to solve the Boston Marathon Bombing before the police, and saw that missing kid as the terrorist.

And he was not even Islamic.

I found an adception. :p

?

Would that be an ad within an ad in some way? Or an ad against ads? Or some malformed http code causing the ad window to refer to itself in some way?

an ad within an ad.
