Without the guide of principles, the only alternative is a grab-bag of arbitrary assertions delivered on a case by case basis. The FCC is a case in point. Observe the mental contortions that the FCC has to go through in order to justify its unjustifiable censorship policies. Since the FCC (and the Supreme Court) has abandoned the First Amendment in favor of "community standards," the FCC is left with no objective standard on which to base its decisions.
I'm sure that the neo-cons would be happy to offer a justification though...
