WILL DEMOCRATS ACT TO SAVE "FREE" MASS MEDIA
[SOURCE: Huffington Post, AUTHOR: Norman Horowitz]
A Federal Communications Commission observer for 40 years, Horowitz believes FCC Chairman Kevin Martin isn't doing what the believes to be the right thing to do. He blames the "evil hands" of: 1) General Electric, the Walt Disney Company, CBS/Viacom, and News Corp all of whom want to get bigger and to have more power and make more money; 2) lobbyists retained by these companies to do what they do; 3) legislators who rely on these lobbyists to raise money for their reelection campaign; and 4) the Bush Administration who will continue to operate in the dark and in secret as long as they can.
