FCC investigation of NPR/PBS represents significant constitutional damage through institutional capture (4.5 - independent agency weaponized against public media), separation of powers violation (4.5 - executive pressure on independent regulatory body), and rule of law erosion (4.0 - selective enforcement against perceived critics). Election integrity impact (3.5) stems from targeting independent news sources during political cycle. Civil rights concerns (3.0) involve press freedom chilling effects. Enforcement_action mechanism adds 1.25x multiplier as formal regulatory power deployed. Federal scope with moderate population yields 1.15x. Severity multipliers reflect strong precedent-setting (1.2 - normalizing political investigations of media), moderate durability (1.15), and reversibility concerns (1.1). A-score: 51.8. B-score driven by high media friendliness (9.0 - media covering threats to media), strong outrage potential (8.5), and strategic layer showing clear mismatch (7.0 - investigation lacks substantive basis), pattern matching (8.0 - fits authoritarian playbook), and narrative pivot capability (7.5). High intentionality (11/15) from targeting critics, chilling effect design, and systematic media intimidation pattern increases strategic weight to 55%. B-score: 32.8. Delta of +19.0 clearly exceeds +10 threshold with A>=25, qualifying as List A.
