Well, maybe `pointless' is more apropos than `stupid'...

The ownership of things like newspapers and TV stations is almost
completely uninteresting. What is important is whether you can freely
publish what you want to say using your own resources. If you can then
you have no cause to complain if someone else happens to be doing the
same. If you can't then it is the people stopping you that are the
problem, not those lucky enough to escape the net.
