Media activists pack FCC hearing; corporations don't bother to show
Speak Out Against Corporate Media Monopolization & the FCC
4/27: Under the Chairmanship of Michael Powell (Colin Powell's son), the FCC is moving aggressively to eliminate the last few public interest protections that prevent the most extreme media monopolization by very large corporations. These proposed changes will dramatically impact the diversity of news, information, and culture available by decreasing the diversity of ownership of local media. People packed a Public Hearing to meet with Commissioner Adelstein on 4/26 in the Legislative Chamber of City Hall, San Francisco to speak out. . Audio from KPOO | Photos | More Info | FAIR
