Is Hillary Abandoning Net Neutrality?/Clinton Defends Net Neutrality Position

IS HILLARY ABANDONING NET NEUTRALITY?
[SOURCE: WebProNews, AUTHOR: Jason Lee Miller]
[Commentary] Unfortunately, Net Neutrality won't be a make-or-break campaign issue, even if it should be. For most voters, it's a fairly heady concept, perhaps so difficult supporters worry frontrunner Sen Hillary Clinton (D-NY) is backing away from it altogether. Though she's supported Net Neutrality legislation in the past, she has yet to mention it on the campaign trail, even within her Internet agenda released last month. And that has organizations like MoveOn.org and other traditionally Democrat supporters nervous. MoveOn sent out word today for members to contact the Clinton campaign for fear she is backing away from her previous stance. You know, because she's never been known to waffle before, right?

CLINTON DEFENDS NET NEUTRALITY POSITION

Sen. Hillary Clinton's campaign said Nov. 15 her long silence on network neutrality should not be interpreted as waning support for the idea of mandating that broadband providers treat all network use in a nondiscriminatory manner. Clinton's silence was the subject of a Nov. 15 teleconference involving several top-ranking Obama campaign officials. The conference came the day after Obama told a large crowd at Google's California headquarters, "I will take a backseat to no one in my commitment to network neutrality." Obama supporter, Stanford law professor and Internet icon Lawrence Lessig suggested that Clinton's silence might be tied to her "acknowledged funding from telecoms." "If Sen. Obama is so concerned about the influence of contributions from the telecommunications industry, perhaps he should return the more than $84,000 he has received during this campaign," said Jin Chon, a spokesperson for the Clinton campaign.
