The current debate within nonviolence studies is between principled and strategic nonviolence as relevant categories for theorizing nonviolent resistance. Principled nonviolence, while retaining the primacy of ethics, is often not practical. -

Before the FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION Washington, D.C. 20554 in the Matter of Future of Media and Information Needs Of
Before the FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION Washington, D.C. 20554 In the Matter of Future of Media and Information Needs GN Docket No. 10-25 of Communities in a Digital Age COMMENTS OF BELO CORP. Belo Corp. (“Belo” or “the Company”)1 hereby submits its Comments in response to the FCC’s Public Notice released on January 21, 2010 in the above-referenced proceeding, in order to assist the Commission in its assessment of Americans’ access to vibrant, diverse sources of news and information. As discussed in more detail below, Americans have access to a vast amount of diverse news and information content, thanks in no small part to the public service provided by Belo and other broadcasters. Moreover, although digital television is still in its infancy, it already has allowed Belo and other television broadcasters to implement innovative new services and pursue new opportunities to better serve their audiences. Television operators surely will continue to explore new ways to use DTV technology to enhance their roles as public servants. Most importantly, the Commission should recognize that Belo, like many other broadcasters, 1 Belo is one of the nation’s largest pure-play, publicly-traded television companies. It owns and operates 20 television stations, reaching more than 14 percent of U.S. television households in 15 markets. Belo stations consistently deliver distinguished journalism for which they have received significant industry recognition including 12 Alfred I. duPont- Columbia University Silver Baton Awards; 11 George Foster Peabody Awards; and 26 national Edward R. Murrow Awards – all since 2000, and in each case more than any other commercial station group in the nation. -
