diversified viewpoints.

Regulations and Why is Media Ownership Important?
The FCC is once again taking up the issue of media ownership
rules and intends, as it tried unsuccessfully in 2003, to ignore
its responsibility to the public. If the FCC has its way it
will hand over our airwaves to an ever shrinking group of media
moguls, who will be the sole determiners (along with their partner
in crime, otherwise known as "The Decider") of all
that the American people get to see and hear and read everything
that passes for information in the United States.
