I was forwarded this event from Clayton:
According to an AP article last week, “The Federal Communications Commission ordered its staff to destroy all copies of a draft study that suggested greater concentration of media ownership would hurt local TV news coverage, a former lawyer at the agency says.”
Tomorrow is your chance to tell the FCC that these underhanded tactics are unacceptable. The FCC is coming to Austin and they want to hear from you!
Please join me, tomorrow on the UT campus where you can hear leaders from the Austin community talk about this important issue. Also at the event will be FCC Commissioner Jonathan Adelstein, who is touring the country to hear from people like you about the upcoming rule changes the FCC has planned for TV, radio and newspaper ownership.
