I dissent because today the FCC empowers Americas new media elite with
unacceptable levels of influence over the ideas and information upon which our
society and our democracy depend.
--track--
The new rules do not completely deregulate the industry but will allow media
companies to expand their audience reach to 45% of the country, up from 35%.
Newspapers will be allowed to own television stations in the same market and
one company can control two stations in the same region.
--sot--
every market is not the same. not all markets are created equally. so we
tried to come up with a flexible program that looks at market size.
--track--
Some media giants have already said they will move to buy more stations and
invest in more markets. Critics say that could mean cutbacks local
journalism... and loses reporting on community issues.
Congressional mandate required the FCC to review media ownership rules --
Congress now has the power to amend the rules. So, the FCC decision does not
end the debate, but quite possibly just gets it started.
