Angels of Public Interest to Descend Upon the FCC (an audio report)

by indy radio
The Federal Communications Commission is a government agency that could help make media beautiful. Instead, the FCC is using its power to collapse control of the media into the hands of fewer and fewer transnational corporations.

<p>FCC Chairman Michael Powell has said "The Market Is My Religion."
This most unwise and unrighteous mortal made the mistake of claiming: "The
night after I was sworn in, I waited for a visit from the angel of the public
interest. I waited all night, but she did not come." Since he had trouble
seeing one Angel that dreadful night, on March 22nd media activists shall descend
upon him in droves.</p>
