I usually don't post anything political on music related boards but I thought this might be of interest to the recording community.

Stop the FCC
On June 2, the Federal Communications Commission intends to lift restrictions on media ownership that could allow your local newspaper, cable provider, radio stations, and TV channels all to be owned by one company. The result could be the disappearance of the checks and balances provided by a competitive media marketplace -- and huge cutbacks in local news and reporting. Good, balanced information is the basis for our democracy. That's why we're asking that:
"Congress and the FCC should stop media deregulation and work to make the media diverse, competitive, balanced, and fair."
Please join us below. We'll send your comments to your Representative and your Senators. If you choose, they'll also be posted to the FCC's public comments website. And we'll keep you posted about what more you can do to support this campaign. This petition is an initiative of MoveOn.org, Media Alliance, CodePink, United for Peace and Justice, and Global Exchange.
