that would take them off the air.

Not sure how hard that would be. Their disaster recovery plan would have to be pretty bad not to be able to switch to another geographic location in a hot minute. And if they're still in Rockefeller, you'd probably have a hell getting past the elevators without them shutting it down. They probably have backup satellite uplink so you can't just knock out their fiber.

Don't get me wrong, I'm all for another Max Headroom, but I think we need to shut them down with fairness in broadcasting laws, or, gallows, just sayin'
