This line of thinking makes sense, but it's simply implausible. The fact of the matter is that one group being able to flood the airwaves with a certain position will effectively take away the free speech anyone else decides to do. CFR is evil in its ways, but easily a necessary one.
And yes there are many ways to circumvent its protections--ads trashing one side while not specifically supporting the other slip through the laws. But I am certainly glad that no one is allowed to buy up all the airwaves for a month saying 'Vote for me, my money means I'm a better person.'
That's not how hybrid cars work. They recoup electrical energy by effectively replacing most of the brakes with mechanical turbines. Instead of having the energy lost in braking going to heat, as in other cars, much of it drives magnets that produce electricity and store it in the car's battery. It's therefore essentially free energy, and a really snazzy idea to boot.
Oddly enough, a very good novel that I would imagine many slashdotters enjoyed started with the same fateful phrase:
Madeline L'Engle's A Wrinkle In Time.
Anyone else still dream of tessering?

Great! Greed Island, here I come!
Hmm. Having a problem here. Anyone know where I can learn to use Nen?
Well sure. I mean, how can you argue with the results that television got doing the same thing?
