Martin Offers Advice For FCC Successor

A Q&A with former Federal Communications Commission Chairman Kevin Martin. Martin advices the next FCC chairman "look hard at the facts and the underlying arguments that are being made and -- while they will have whatever ideology they bring to the issues -- they should be prepared to actually examine the underlying facts and have it be more of a fact-based decision-making process as opposed to just an ideological one." He thinks there could be bi-partisan support for universal service reform and lowering cable rates in 2009.
