Because the Democrat Party (tm) finally saw the writing on the wall and the biggest supporters told his crusty old ass that if he ran he would 100% guarantee a trump victory, and he ultimately withdrew at the 11th hour. The important part is: it did not stop him from TRYING.
Maybe you forget about the part where the party basically had to have a fake as fuck primary due to low confidence in him (normally it would just be assumed), and when he was finally convinced not to run they had to push Kamala in as a nominated candidate, ultimately doing an end run around the democratic process--nobody outside of super delegates voted for her in a primary. The Democrat Party (tm) does not embrace democracy.

Fox News is not regulated by the FCC, it's a cable channel.

Fox also broadcasts. It does matter. As you say, Fox Broadcasting! The one thing supported the other. They pretended not to operate as a network in their early years so they wouldn't be subject to requirements of networks, but they were only just under the line. I don't know where this idea that Fox is not a broadcasting network came from except possibly for that, but it absolutely is and was one and that network supported their cable network. The two are effectively one thing, that's why they called them both Fox.

You can pull in frameworks in C just as easily as in any other language. And since now we're using Qt or GTK+ instead of Xaw, Unix apps are bigger. But that's true regardless of language. Plus screen resolution is vastly higher than it used to be. Even phones now commonly have more pixels than even high end workstations used to. Looks like Android devs have been using uncompressed bitmaps out of ignorance, shock amazement.
