Actually, it isn't. TV and Radio stations must air political advertisements. So, if you had a business and you wanted to put up a Hillary for President poster, it wouldn't be far fetched for the government to say, you must be fair and post an opponents poster to. After all, you are a business and you gave up your rights. I think, you only support this because you aren't affected. If it went the other way, you'd be crying foul.
TV and Radio have to air political advertisements because they are part of the media/airwaves - public access issues. The same laws do not apply to private businesses for obvious reasons. Its not even close to being related. Come up with a better analogy...this one is just silly.
