But trying to make the leaders of a privately owned cable TV channel answer for editorial decisions made 2 years ago... that's clearly not their role.

No. The legislative branch does not control the executive branch. Congress can only request said items in support of legislative initiative or of a specific oversight, not some broad "because I said so" fashion that we see now. They are not an investigative or judicial authority. That is what makes this so called Fox News oversight so idiotic. They have gone power hungry and will continue to ignore their elected duties to chase unicorns until slapped back down to earth!

Interesting.
Can you show us where you espoused this view at any point between January 2011 and January 2017?
My fellow southpaw Mark Brunell will probably always be my favorite Jaguar.
