It probably goes deeper then that - they have been trying to use the FCC for a long time to silence Limbaugh and Drudge - by labeling it as a fake news site or entertainment that can go ahead and discredit it, the long term goal is not to just label it but deny you the right to see it.  Just like with the social media being all up in this right now to protect us from false news stories, they are just going to remove it before you can see it so as not to cause you to worry about that "fake" information.  It is called censorship - if I want to post something to my page(Which I do not have because I think facebook is a massive time vortex) that is incorrect let the people / friends tell me it is stupid or fake.  

This is also the reason that the MSM is having a cow over Trump and his twitter, its no longer up to them to shape the news to their narrative, he is going around the informational toll gates of information and crop dusting it himself.  

I worry less about a fox news on in a bar ( which is usually sports ) then I do every hotel lobby, airport etc showing CNN.

The challenge is people are getting a hundred different visions of the world from a hundred different outlets or a thousand different outlets, and that is ramping up divisions. It’s making people exaggerate or say what’s most controversial or peddling in the most vicious of insults or lies, because that attracts eyeballs.

A federal court jury decided Friday that a Rolling Stone journalist defamed a former University of Virginia associate dean in a 2014 magazine article about sexual assault on campus that included a debunked account of a fraternity gang rape.

The MSM and democrat party does not like us getting the information unfiltered or an oppositional viewpoint to what they want us to think.
