Today's guest is Jeff Chester, the executive director of the Center for Digital Democracy and an expert on developments in electronic media, especially broadband communications.
His is the author of Digital Destiny:
"Digital Destiny reveals the corrupt nature of U.S. media and telecommunications policymaking. It "names names"--including political leaders, FCC Commissioners and nonprofit groups--who have accepted media industry cash and high paying positions. It exposes the industry's "vision" for our digital future, where the promise of the new media is made subservient to a narrow, self-serving agenda. The book offers an agenda for action, including helping `clean house' at the FCC."

Question we might ask if this was not a pre-recorded program:
Guarding net neutrality is like guarding the front door-- but why doesn't the mainstream media talk more about what we can do to guard the front door?
