Now, it may be a good idea
to bring it back, but for the opposite reason: to give AM a chance at a
comeback of sorts. Bringing back the rule would make big corporations like
Entercom, Disney, Clear Channel, et. al. either create programming that
listeners will listen to (and advertisers will support) or give up those AM
plants to someone that WILL. The only logical reason they are keeping them
once they move the content to FM is to freeze out competition

Disagree, the only thing that would do is kill AM off even quicker. FM
dominates every market out there now and stations stuck on AM are very
wise to simulcast on FM as well. The problem is, no one wants to buy
AM stations anymore, and the market each year continues for fall for
AM.

Hey don't get me wrong, I love AM radio and listen and dx it all the
time. But I also realize what the facts are about AM, it is a dying
breed.
