Yes, these are problems you come across in a nanny state. Which is why in the US, most all speech is protected, even hate speech. And for the government to impose laws or rules to force a private company to regulate that speech runs counter to that. So I'm not really sure why this is a conversation in the first place.

there is a large set of rules that define what can't be said or shown on radio or TV

Only on TV that is publicly broadcast over the public airwaves. Anything private like cable or satellite can say anything they want.
