Idea to stop riots, racism, bigotry, etc.

Here's an idea. Let's pass a law that ad revenue cannot be earned for news / content that promotes riots, racism, bigotry, xenophobia, homophobia, etc. It seems many are now making money off rioting and posting to youtube and across social networks.

Hm. Who gets to decide what is racist, offensive, etc ?
That's the main challenge that needs to be solved. At the moment, the media and social networks.
