I can't WAIT till the FCC is revamped with the adults in charge
Edited on Thu Jan-22-09 01:24 PM by DainBramaged
I'm at work so I'll have to add to this as I can, but I am hoping some of the absolutely stupid repression by the B* FCC is repealed now that the adults are in charge.

I want to see an end to censorship on cable (you pay, you should see unedited shows) and parents who don't want their kids hearing language they themselves use or their kids use in school can block the channel. I want the media broken up so that there is less concentration which has affected the political landscape and programing for America. I want People like Clear Channel and Fox, who were used as mouthpieces of the B* misAdministration curbed.

2. We've got to keep the f'n industry OUT of it....
The FCC and every other agency is chartered to balance the economic interests of industries with the public interests.

It's been way out of balance for way to long.

4. I'll second that.
The outgoing chairman was one of the most dishonest, vindictive officials in government. He was still having his underlings issue orders all weekend long -- they were still coming out on Monday, even though it was a federal holiday.

Good riddance to them.
