Why does the government control what we're allowed to see? Why do they protect local TV stations? It's the 21st century - If I'm willing to pay for it, I should be able to purchase any channel regardless of where it's from -- if I want all the NBCs from California, I should be able to do that. Or if I want 2 from each time zone, I should be able to do that as well...

Fundamentally, it is the stations themselves protecting their advertising revenue by more or less dividing the nation into "markets" and running as a sort of monopoly in each market.
