SEATTLE FCC MEDIA OWNERSHIP HEARING
Thursday, Nov. 30 6pm-9pm
Seattle Public Library (4th and Madison, downtown Seattle)
- With FCC Commissioners Michael Copps and Jonathan Adelstein
- Opening statements by Sen. Maria Cantwell and Rep. Jay Inslee
The Federal Communications Commission is considering making changes to its rules which set limits on the expansion of big media companies—how many TV channels, radio stations and newspapers a single company can own in a single city or nationwide. These rules are designed to maintain a healthy democracy through media outlets which are diverse, information-rich and accountable to their local communities.
However, big media companies like Viacom, Disney and Clear Channel see those rules - and those democratic values - as barriers to higher profits. They’re spending millions lobbying the FCC to weaken or abolish the ownership rules.
Make your voice heard as well. Come to the public hearing Nov. 30 and tell the FCC why you think big media is big enough already! (Bring your friends, and prepare your two-minute testimony.)
