A Common Cause petition drive: “The FCC is considering fundamental changes

to the media ownership regulations that will affect all of us. Despite the

immense impact of the proposed changes, the FCC has held only one formal

public hearing on the issue. While the public has largely been unaware and

uninvolved in the issue, the nation’s largest broadcast companies – which

could reap huge benefits from the elimination of these ownership rules –

have spent tens of millions of dollars on lobbying and political

contributions in Washington.

Join other Americans in telling FCC Chairman Michael Powell to delay the June 2nd vote on media consolidation and oppose relaxing the current ownership rules.”
