Why is the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) considering relaxing or eliminating media ownership limits? As a citizen of this great land of ours I am entitled to as much diverse information as possible so I can make intelligent choices/decisions. If the powers-that-be are worried about what might become public then I say clean up your act! One perspectiveonly is the death knell for democracy.

Media Ownership: Do not relax!

November 29, 2006 FCC

Dear FCC,

RE: Docket 06-121, Media Ownership Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking

We need to have limits to the size of media conglomerates. As with other industries, huge near-monopolies are NOT a good idea. But unlike other industries, where Mom & Pops can eak out a living (sometimes) in the shadow of a Walmart or Home Depot, this industry is both terribly expensive to get into (thereby making it even harder for smaller venues to crop up in the face of larger competitors), AND it also needs to serve a vital public service. Given that reality, it is even more important that we keep tabs on just how big the big boys get.

For these reasons, I strongly opppose any action by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to relax or eliminate media ownership limits.

Allowing big media companies to own even more media outlets in our local communities will only exacerbate the homogenization and lack of diverse opinions in the media.

Thank you for your attention to this message,

Media consolidation is to blame for the decline in the quality and quantity of local news, the dearth of minority ownership in broadcasting, and the homogenization of programming on TV and radio. No matter what channel you are on, the news is the same--commercials seem to take place at the same time too. Allowing big media companies to own even more media outlets in our local communities will only exacerbate those problems.

The larger our media conglomerats become, the less access we will have to the diverse opinons in our country and the more likely we are to lose our freedom of speech.

Take for instance, the Dixie Chicks statement in England, not even the US, when they said that they were embarrassed that George W. Bush was from their own state of Texas. So called Independent radio stations had orders from the top down to not play their music and DJs who refused to follow orders were fired from their jobs.

And this can happen in American, the land of the free????

Stop the abilitly of our mass communications agencies from merging into larger and larger companies or pretty soon, we'll be no different from other counties.

Let's stay FREE in America.

RE: Docket 06-121, Media Ownership Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking

Most of us now search the web for factual information and news. Why? Because the news media has been in the hands of a few who have an agenda to push. Not fair! Any action by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to relax or eliminate media ownership limits is an outrage for the citizens of our nation.

We need to take back what we have lost in local and small ownership of our radio, TV, and newspapers not make it worse. Media consolidation is to blame for the decline in the quality and quantity of local news, the dearth of minority ownership in broadcasting, and the homogenization of programming on TV and radio.

Dear FCC,

RE: Docket 06-121

The USA is in trouble--our budget and trade deficits, the collapsing housing market, the erosion of the value of our money, the loss of some of freedoms, the loss of much of our respect and credibility in the world, etc. Many people don't know how dangerous things are because the majority of our media is not doing a good enough job telling them. We need more voices in the media for our survival as a nation.

Please do not further relax media ownership limits. There is already widespread distrust of Big Media, and for good reason. Who chooses what is "news" and how it is reported will always have a subjective element. This argues for more, not fewer, media companies. As my trust in news reporting erodes, so does my trust in our nation as a whole. A disengaged and angry citizenry is not a good forumla for success, unless you have a soft spot for fascism.

I strongly opppose any action by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to relax or eliminate media ownership limits.

There is very little selection for real news without bias already. And to consolidate ownership further is to consolidate and narrow what is considered news. One reason to consolidate is to broadcast the same programs on more than one channel/network. I do not call that variety and it does not provide choice.

The airways belong to the people as a whole, not a particular investor. The airways especially do not belong to investors who do not care about news and informing the people, the public, but about profits.

What's the matter, are the profits not enough, even yet? No, it is also about influence, power and control. And relaxing ownership limits will lead to more power and control in fewer hands with a narrower focus of interest.

The FCC should be focusing on ways to provide greater, wider focus of interest, not less.

Media consolidation is to blame for the decline in the quality and quantity of local news, the dearth of minority ownership in broadcasting, and the homogenization of programming on TV and radio. Allowing big media companies to own even more media outlets in our local communities will only exacerbate those problems. The Champaign-Urbana, IL area has already witnessed a reduction in local news coverage and programming as a result of the acquisition of local television stations by corporations outside the east central Illinois area. Further consolidation will only accelerate this trend.

Dear FCC,

RE: Docket 06-121, Media Ownership Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking

I strongly opppose any action by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to relax or eliminate media ownership limits. Why is this question being raised again? Didn't the last time in 2003 prove the people of this country are against this kind of blatant disregard for democracy and the diversity of the watchdog press? Is it because big media giants, all eight of them, want to own and control even more?

Media consolidation is to blame for the decline in the quality and quantity of local news, the death of minority ownership in broadcasting, and the homogenization of programming on TV and radio. Allowing big media companies to own even more media outlets in our local communities will only exacerbate those problems. Already here in Fort Myers, FL, one company owns and operates two network stations. How can owning more make the news objective? Allowing more consolidation is limiting the already limited voices and opinions for people to make decisions. It would fester into a censored version of events, and democracy would be the loser because the way we hear and learn about things would be decided by fewer and fewer. I don't understand why this is even being considered!

The founding fathers made the "First Amendment" freedom of speech, and I am sure they wanted freedom of speech for everyone, not just a few to decide what speech should be released to the masses. They must have thought it was pretty important since they made it number one. Maybe you can take a hint from this obvious importance and disregard any further consolidation now and in the future.

Dear FCC,

RE: Docket 06-121, Media Ownership Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking

I believe that any action by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to relax or eliminate media ownership limits is a seriously wrong step in the wrong direction.

Media consolidation is to blame for the decline in the quality and quantity of all news -- including local, national, and international. Such consolidation has also been the dearth of minority ownership in broadcasting and the homogenization of programming on TV and radio. The results: almost all media presentations, audio and video, are nothing more than 'blah'. Continuing to allow big media companies to own even more media outlets will only exacerbate those problems. You should, instead, reverse course and assist independent stations in the resurrection of independent news sources, both radio and video.

Information -- from diverse, competitive and independent sources -- is vitally important to the health of our democracy - a function for which your organization was created. I urge you, at the very least. to hold the line against any further consolidation of our media, and to listen to the voices of the people -- not the media corporations -- on this critical issue. I suggest you schedule hearings aimed at promoting the re-invigoration and growth of small and independent radio and video.

All companies have a right to serve their agenda. This is also true with media owners. Broadcast television (as separate from cable / satellite / etc) is, however, supposed to serve the public interest.

Help the people receive the information from a variety of viewpoints they need to make sound political, social and community decisions.

I urge you to hold the line against any further consolidation of our media, and to listen to the voices of the people -- not the media corporations -- on this critical issue.

Dear FCC,

RE: Docket 06-121, Media Ownership Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking

I am writing to express my strong opposition any action that the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) might take to relax or eliminate media ownership limits.

Here in Cincinnati the quantity and quality of local news has declined significantly. It is clear that media consolidation is primarily to blame for this. In addition, the loosening of media ownership limits has lead to a dearth of minority ownership in broadcasting, and the homogenization of programming on TV and radio. Allowing big media companies to own even more media outlets in our local communities will only exacerbate those problems.

A healthy democracy cannot exist without a free flow of information from diverse, competitive and independent sources. The building of large media oligopolies is a potential threat to the continued health of our democratic system.

I urge you to hold the line against any further consolidation of our media, and to listen to the voices of the people -- not the media corporations -- on this critical issue.

Media plays a large role in our society and is a critical vehicle for getting and receiving information--and the greater the consolidation of media ownership, the less opportunity we have to access information, news, ideas, and people. It's frustrating and it's the role of the FCC to work on behalf of the general public--which means keeping media ownership limits in place.

Media consolidation is tantamount to brainwashing. The public, particularly the masses, get information that benefits the corporate world, keeping the masses under their control: from bombarding them with news that supports a particular world view, rather than news as it's happening, to supporting the pharmaceutical companies being able to advertise, thus raising the cost of drugs, as well as bombarding us with all the drugs we need to stay alive and healthy, with caveats about all the deadly side effects.

Allowing big media companies to own even more media outlets in our local communities is self serving and an instrument of further dumbing down our society to a culture of drones that do their masters' bidding.

Information -- from diverse, competitive and independent sources -- is vitally important to the health of our democracy and the health of the greater population.

Dear FCC,

RE: Docket 06-121, Media Ownership Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking

As a media professional, I strongly opppose any action by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to relax or eliminate media ownership limits.

The public relies on information provided by the "Fourth Estate" to make decisions. Media consolidation can be traced to the decline in the quality and quantity of local news, the dearth of minority ownership in broadcasting, and the homogenization of programming on TV and radio. And the sensationalizing of information to secure ratings for advertising dollars. Allowing big media companies to own even more media outlets in our local communities will only exacerbate those problems.

Information -- from diverse, competitive and independent sources -- is required in our democracy. I urge you to hold the line against any further consolidation of our media, and to listen to the voices of the people -- not the media corporations -- on this critical issue.

Effective Democracy depends on an effective free press

November 29, 2006 FCC

Dear FCC,

RE: Docket 06-121, Media Ownership Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking

Benjamin Franklin said he'd prefer a free press without free elections to free elections without a free press. Today, the danger of censorship comes not from overly-powerful government but from a stranglehold on media outlets by a small number of corporations. I urge that the rules on ownership of media not be relaxed in any way that would allow further consolidation of ownership of media outlets.

Dear FCC,

RE: Docket 06-121, Media Ownership Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking

I think we've had enough of media consolidation, haven't we? at what point do you think putting all the media in the hands of a select few individuals becomes a threat to our freedom in a way that can do just as much damage to us as a nation than any terrorist bomb?

Nobody I know anymore listens to radio. I have over 400 channels on my television set and there's nothing ever on. The news is wholly inadequate to inform me, as a citizen, as to what's the heck is going on these days (and for sure they aren't reporting on this story, now are they?).

Could you answer the question as to what possible agenda Time Warner, Fox, Viacom, Disney and Sony may have in terms of the kind of programming and news they deliver to us through their media monopolies that might be corrosive to democratic ideals? Even if the answer is "no agenda" (which only a room full of monkeys would deliver) you are obliged (via my measely tax dollars which are your back-up source of income after all your junkets and fancy lunches bought by the monopolies) to at least ask that question on a regular basis.

Personally, I don't have any kids so I'm not really concerned about the kind of world I leave behind me other than I think democracy was a hell of a good and noble idea.

Best of luck to you....

I consider this to be a tremendously important issue to the future of our democracy. When you have media controlled by so few people who are also connected to the government, you end up in a situation like we have now. I was deeply disturbed to hear that the non-Fox large- network news people were actually "worried" about the decision to call the situation in Iraq a "civil war" this past week for fear of repercussions from the current administration. This should not be happening in America. To protect our democracy, we need many voices and differing opinions. We need people who are not afraid to do investigative reporting. Watergate never would have come to light without it. Neither would any other underhanded or corrupt dealings of government or private industry.

Another situation I heard of yesterday involved a man, I believe it was in Chicago, who felt so deeply about the war in Iraq that he left a message on his website protesting the war and explaining his planned action. He also set up video cameras to tape himself before setting himself on fire in a public place to draw attention to his message. The media reported it as a "fire" that "disrupted traffic." Had this happened during the Vietnam protest era, it most certainly would have been considered newsworthy enough to be reported accurately.

To summarize: we are in deep trouble. Without a truly free press, which we cannot have if only a few powerful people are deciding what we can hear and how it will be framed, our future as a democracy is bleak.

I strongly opppose any action by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to relax or eliminate media ownership limits.

The more freedom you give these huge media companies the information seems to be getting less reliable and more like propaganda from a third world autocracy.

Please exercise your duty as a United States of America government department to protect the best interests of the American people not the best interests of corporate profits and a very small minority of power brokers.

We try to find new sources of news, even the computer news or streaming programs from stations not in our geographic area. Media consolidation keeps us from hearing the subtleties of the situation in Iraq or Palestine. It is to blame for the decline in the quality and quantity of local news, and the homogenization of programming on TV and radio. Do not let us be deprived of dissenting voices Allowing big media companies to own more media outlets in our local communities will only make it more difficult to get an unbiased position on how our country is seen in the world.

Information from diverse, competitive and independent sources is vitally important to me and my family. It allows us to form valid opinions to communicate to our elected representatives. I urge you to hold the line against any further consolidation of our media, and to listen to the voices of the people -- not the media corporations -- on this critical issue.

The Free Press is critical to our nation's survival. I strongly opppose any action by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to relax or eliminate media ownership limits.

Our local news outlets are rapdily falling prey to Wal Mart-style competition from Media consolidation. It is also a cause of the dearth of minority ownership in broadcasting, and the homogenization of programming on TV and radio. Allowing big media companies to own even more media outlets in our local communities will only exacerbate those problems.

Please make it possible to keep Information -- from diverse, competitive and independent sources -- flowing. It is vitally important to the health of our democracy.

Earlier this month the American electorate said they wanted a change in leadership and those same people are speaking aloud for more independence in media ownership, not less, and certainly not in the hands of a mighty few.

This country has been down this path before. A hundred years ago it was called "Yellow Journalism" because information was distributed by the few and wealthy. Now you are considering repeating the sins of the past by promoting "Corporate Journalism."

This country only succeeds when its citizenry is knowledgeable, and informed, and invested in the process of governing. It is critical that each US citizen have access to information from multiple sources, who represent conflicting and opposing opinions, and who challenge the listener to weigh carefully the quality of what is expressed --allowing each person to fully explore the key issues of the day. When information comes from only one or two biased sources, we all lose. A consolidated media is a threat to the concept of participatory government.

Media Monopoly / Consolidation

November 29, 2006 FCC

Dear FCC,

RE: Docket 06-121, Media Ownership Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking

Media monopoly is the first sign of a dictatorship! Control the media and you control the minds of its citizenry. This country was founded on FREEDOM OF SPEECH!!! That is why I STRONGLY opppose any action by the FCC to relax or eliminate media ownership limits. There is a reason why there should be reasonable limitations of ownership.

Media consolidation is to blame for the decline in the quality and quantity of local and national news coverage, the dearth of minority ownership in broadcasting, and the homogenization of programming on TV and radio. Allowing big media companies to own even more media outlets in our local communities will only exacerbate those problems.

FREEDOM OF SPEECH must be UPHELD and we have entrusted you with that very heavy responsibility!!! Please do NOT fail us!!!

Dear FCC,

Uniformity that stems from consolidation works for health care to provide more to more, works for the mail to provide a standard of service but when the consolidation involves biased organizations at the helm, it can only breed corruption and favoritism. If we are talking about the very people that deliver our news, what news will we get? Scripted, biased, corrupted news that steers the viewer to believing one version of what is happening. Please do not narrow the very freedoms this nation was built on. Do not let one organization so twisted that they even considered O.J.'s book for the money over the fundimental basics of morals and good taste. Murdock has only one thing in mind, to make us all think what he wants us to think and all to vote like he wants us to vote and to support only what he wants us to support. Please do not let his tenticles poison any more. Stop his gratuitus take over of our press and airways. PLEASE! If not for me, think of the million of kids that believe what they read and see. How ill they ever learn to think for themselves if everything says the same thing???

I believe that media consolidation is to blame for the decline in the quality and quantity of local news, the dearth of minority ownership in broadcasting, and the homogenization of programming on TV and radio. Letting g media conglomeratoes own more media outlets in our local communities will exacerbate these issues.

Information -- from diverse, competitive and independent sources -- is vitally important to the health of our democracy. I urge you to resist further consolidation of our media, and to listen to the voices of the people -- not the media corporations -- on this critical issue.

Take a look at the coverage of a hearing in CA recently when - on very, very short notice (deliberate?) - dozens of citizens from a wide diversity of ethnic, racial, economic & other interests made impassioned pleas to undo the consolidation of media. They made crystal clear the need for local news coverage, the need for people to have a voice rather than the controlled canned stuff fed from the corporate officials above. The hearings ran well into the night & I'm sure came as a complete surprise to the FCC folks there.

Please, listen to us at the grassroots level - that's where the voices of democracy are found and heard.

RE: Docket 06-121, Media Ownership Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking

Please join me in oppposing any action by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to relax or eliminate media ownership limits.

The United States was founded on the principle of a free press. The press can only be truly free when there are a multitude of voices presenting differing viewpoints.

Furthermore, local media can only meet the needs of its community when it is locally, or at least regionally, owned.

I consider the current trend toward consolidation of media ownership a significant threat to American democracy.

I hope you will use the position with which you have been entrusted by the American people to oppose this threat.

An informed public is the sine qua non of democracy. To be well informed the public requires diverse perspectives on current events and the activities of our public officials. To allow the Media to be controlled by a few is to insure the demise of democracy. To this end I adamantly oppose the relaxation of elimination of limits on media ownership. Media consolidation is to blame for the decline in the quality and quantity of local news, the dearth of minority ownership in broadcasting, and the homogenization of programming on TV and radio. Allowing big media companies to own even more media outlets in our local communities will only exacerbate those problems.

As the media becomes more consolidated through ownership by a few large companies, we weaken the foundation of democracy. When I consider why I am proud to be an American, it is largely because of the many voices that represent our country. When I consider what is most distressing about authoritarian regimes in places such as Iran and North Korea, the first thing is their control of the media.

Control of the media by a few large corporations is just as damaging as the government control in many of the world's most oppressive regimes. Is this where America is headed? It is up your commission to see that this doesn't happen here.

America's democracy needs you to keep alive America's many voices.

America deserves open, honest, and unbiased reporting. Media consolidation has caused media giants like Fox to become the mouthpiece for the Bush administration. There are laws prohibiting propaganda distribution by the government, yet it continues daily.

We are tired of having all media outlets contolled by dollars and corporate interests. America wants and deserves to have the news reported without "spin", without lies, without White House "talking points", and most importantly, we deserve to have the FCC to be an advocate of the American people, not of media influence.

If the FCC can get riled up about Janet Jackson's breast; why aren't you riled up about the impact of further media consolidation that will further limit our ability to get local programming and unaltered news.

Your job is to protect America's communications. You owe your allegiance to us---not to big business!

Media consolidation is bad for the country, bad for democracy and bad for the economy. It costs thousands of jobs in the broadcast industry as "local" programming for hundreds of stations is now cranked out on assembly lines far away from the communities the stations are supposed to serve. Broadcast entities are supposed to serve the public's "interest, convenience and necessity." The airwaves are ours. We want them back.

The bigger media ownership has gotten the harder it is for me to find real news that is not spun... or just outright lies!!!

A clear example of this is when Isreal and Lebonnon were at t he height of their fighting all I was able to see on the news was about Jon Bennett Ramsey. It is not news that a possible killer was flown in business class when a new war is breaking out.

Another even more upsetting example was the first day after the Mark Foley incident came to light. All day Fox News reported that Mark was a Democrat from Florida and had it in type on the monitor that Mr Foley was a Democrat. And this passes for news. Since when is biased reporting that reports lies considered news?

I don't even believe that Fox should be able to renew their license. America has been "dumbed down" beyond belief. America is no longer number 1. Educationally we are 24th or lower. Andthe medias' spin, hype and lies have played a major role in the slow destruction of democracy and the fact that America has become one of the most conservative (and hated) countries in the world.

Please help save DEMOCRACY AND AMERICA by having more voices represent us in more diversified media and media ownership. The large news conglomerates make it imposible to find the truth and are destroying our country by playing up biases instead of allowing us to read, hear and see the truth to make educated decisions. Instead all of our decisions of how to interpret the news are being made for us and we are being spoon fed lies and being diverted by "entertainment" that isn't but passes for news.

Dear FCC,

RE: Docket 06-121, Media Ownership Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking

Here in the mountains of western North Carolina, we already have a disadvantage because of reception problems for radio and TV. Add to that the fact that in this community one cable company has a monopoly on TV channel availability. And now, you are considering relaxing or elminating media ownership limits. I find this incomprehensible. Our democracy is fragile enough as it is; reducing even further the variety of voices and views available in the media will only make the situation worse.

A personal note: I was a writer/broadcaster at the Voice of America for 30 years -- broadcasting to the world all aspects of American democracy. One of the aspects that we strongly emphasized was the diversity of our socieity and how that gave strength to our political system. I can't imagine writing for VOA today and trying to explain how or why media consolidation is a "good" thing.

I have lost a trust in my government particurlarly under this past 6 years of administration and the BIASED MEDIA it has created by making reporters kow tow to "leadership's insistance on friendly questions and pre-scripted dialogue". Just because W can't think and talk on his feet doesn't mean investigation of his thinking should toothless and limited to what he preaches. Further consolidation of media giants just creates more domestic propaganda...which takes the American public further from the reality of the world they live in....and further down the Fascist road that will destroy the constitution. Leave it to a DUMB-ASS in the white house to lead the world into more violence and unrest...assisted by cowering reporters asking if they can ask a question....and media avenues that want ratings and evangelical adgendas to dictate what is put out over the boob-tube. Geo W, do yer homewrk before you start another war. You never fought in one....in fact you ran from oppertunities to learn about other cultures and thier history. You'ld rather just drop bombs, kill all who do the dirty work, and call it 'Mission Accomplished". Media as it has grown larger and more consolidated has allowed to let all this happen. Further consolidation will just lead the U.S. faster into dictatorship. Nice goin' FCC on helping to dismantle the constitution here at home! Thank god for blogs, the internet, and real investigative reporters. W/out them we would already be marching in lock-step further along the Fascist Hwy.

November 29, 2006 FCC

Dear FCC,

RE: Docket 06-121, Media Ownership Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking

I m strongly against any decision by the FCC to loosen or do away with limits on media ownership.

Media consolidation is the reason why we have low-quality news today. Do you watch the news or listen to the radio? Do you notice how it all seems to be the same, no matter what channel or station? This is why, and it is the expected outcome of consolidation. If we allow big media corporations to own even more outlets in our local communities, it will make the problems only more severe.

There is no substitute for information in a healthy, free democracy as ourselves. But that information needs to come from different sources, with a respect for objectivity. We need independent sources for our news, and this is what a competitive society should seek after. I strongly urge you to hold the line against any further consolidation of our media, and to listen to the voices of the people -- not the media corporations -- on this critical issue. Do something that has not been done in this country for a long time...do something for the people and not the corporations.

It is already effecting almost every area of my life. With the media now controlled by a handful of super-wealthy people we are headed into a monopolistic capitalistic economy, and that is deadly to our economic way of life; predictive of another great depression. There is no more free market capitalism and I am sick and tired of having you FCC schucks giving more and more of the airwaves to these insatiable greedy bastards.

Media Consolidation

November 29, 2006 FCC

Dear FCC,

RE: Docket 06-121, Media Ownership Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking

Consolidation of media in the US has caused my information resources to shrink and decline in quality since I began reading newspapers and watching TV news almost 50 years ago. It needs to stop and be reversed so that news ceases to be entertainment and begins to return to real substantive news and opinions of ALL stripes. Therefore I strongly opppose any action by the Federal Communications Commission to further relax or eliminate media ownership limits.

Our democracy is threatened by too much media consolidation which creates entertainment pablum instead of quality programming from diverse, competitive and independent sources. Please ignore the pleas from the powerful and think of the needs of citizens for a change.

Please do not relax current media ownership standards by allowing the growth of ever larger media conglomerations in radio and TV.

Our nation desperately needs a free and inquisitive press. By allowing a highly biased press entity, such as the Fox network, to circumvent the tradional balanced coverage that used to be required, you have changed the way the news is brought into the homes of our citizens. Your job is to help keep America strong. News coverage that can be bought can only weaken our once great country.

Monopoly - or anything coming close to it - is something we very frequently criticize vehemently in countries or groups with whom we disagree. Putting that same kind of control of the media in the hands of big companies in our own country should be equally condemned, if not more, since we Americans still have the opportunity to control some of our own democracy and destiny.

Is there any question at this point that media consolidation is to blame for the decline in the quality and quantity of local news? That it contributes to the dearth of minority ownership in broadcasting, and to the homogenization of programming on TV and radio? If you have ever tried to listen to the radio in a smaller city -- in which half or more of the stations are owned by one faraway media giant -- you already know how variety and quality have been siphoned off. Allowing big media companies to own even more media outlets in our local communities only increases these problems.

November 29, 2006 FCC

Dear FCC,

RE: Docket 06-121, Media Ownership Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking

I strongly oppose any action by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to relax or eliminate media ownership limits.

I have been shocked at the deterioration in quality of news in my lifetime. Local news is now 30 minutes and the same for national. When I grew up, local news was one hour and national 30 minutes plus many news programs at varied times of day.

It is no surprise to me that the quality of participation in our government and public conversation is correspondingly poor. People just do not know what is going on. Why? Because a few people at the top of the dominant corporations determine what to tell them and HOW.

Please return us to a country where civic involvement is supported by a lively, and respectful, discussion of issues in our media. Limiting ownership gives smaller media outlets the opportunity to engage in the conversation.

I urge you to hold the line against any further consolidation of our media, and to listen to the voices of the people -- not the media corporations -- on this critical issue.

Dear FCC,

RE: Docket 06-121, Media Ownership Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking

I strongly opppose any action by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to relax or eliminate media ownership limits.

I find it incredible that you are even considering relaxing media ownership limits: it serves absolutely no legitimate public purpose and, in fact, works against the public interest in maintaining unbiased and diverse sources of information.

Media consolidation is to blame for the decline in the quality and quantity of local news, the dearth of minority ownership in broadcasting, and the homogenization of programming on TV and radio. That it took many months after bloggers posted accurate information before the mainstream media even mentioned news events of critical importance (e.g., the existence of the Downing Street minutes) is an example of this. Allowing big media companies to own even more media outlets in our local communities will only exacerbate those problems.

Consolidation crushes innovation from those who would use their creativity to attempt to create their niche in an open market with competition. Consolidation removes the incentive to search for different news stories as a means of obtaining market share. When a few corporate entities monopolise the media, only the "safe", herd mentality makes it out into the market.

The public needs diverse sources of information

November 29, 2006 FCC

Dear FCC,

RE: Docket 06-121, Media Ownership Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking

The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) exists to make sure that the media is the public airways in a way that serves the public interest.

Relaxing the rules that limit media consolidation is NOT in the public interest.

Here in the Seattle ares, mergers and purchases have reduced the number of companies that control the broadcast stations. This has lowered the quality and quantity of local news, and lowered minority ownership. There is less variety in programming and in opinions expressed on TV and radio. Allowing big media companies to own even more media outlets in our local communities is a really bad idea

I urge you to hold the line against any further consolidation of our media.

This is not just a matter of entertainment. Actually, it's a matter of communication and education. Big media by it's nature cannot challenge the status quo or attempt to stimulate our brains. That would be dangerous to their existance. Keeping us all dumb is what big media wants. Please help to truly inform the public, keep the media diverse and honest. Reject further consolidation of these vital news sources. Thank You.

I strongly opppose any action by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to relax or eliminate media ownership limits. Consolidation has lead to a lessening of local coverage, and now Sinclair, who carries our ABC and Fox signals, is blackmailing our cable companies, refusing to provide the FREE HD feed, demanding "payment"- all other networks/stations provide this free. The net result is that all of us in this area can't get HD broadcasts, because of their extortion. Only larger, consolidated outfits can pull this off. NO to bigger.

The US is in crisis in various fronts. A democracy depends on its citizens being well informed and TRUTHFULLY informed.

We US citizens are tired of propaganda ruling the day, and our elected leaders controlling media information.

"The observer affects the observed" - more media outlets represent the whole picture better than a few. Six blind men describing an elephant give completely different descriptions based on where they are standing and touching the animal.

There are many examples, including political, of how nations fail when the public doesn't get the whole picture. Media conglomerates share the guilt and hopefully shame in the demise of our nation.

In fact, media ownership rules should be changed to DECREASE the limits now in place. Period.

DEMOCRACY needs small media: Independent reporters and broadcasters, with dedication to investigating and reporting the TRUTH about government, about the environment, about business practices, about profits, about greed, about security, about everything that is done in the name of the American People, "for" the American People, or "to" the American People.

Corporate control, big media, steady infotainment, and government propaganda masquerading as NEWS is KILLING Democracy. Will the FCC make matters still worse by acceeding to the greed of Big Media? will it stand still? or will it start a very important movement back to small media, local media, media responsive to the needs of the American People, instead of to corporate greed & leadership malfeasance?

P.S. O'Reilly's "facts" have wrong so much of the time we must suppose he and FOX are only actors and propagandists, not reporters and NEWS at all. Tragic to allow them to continue their deceipt. Catastrophic to consider letting them make it still worse.

Corporate media consolidation has morphed the airways into a disinformation system which is above and beyond anything we could have accused the communist media of the 50's of propagating. To Tass, Isvestia, and Pravda, the current American media control would have been their ultimate dream. It is a major tool that is being used to "destroy us from within".

Corporate agendas for the DUMBING DOWN OF AMERICA is are to blame for the decline in the quality and quantity of local news, the dearth of minority ownership in broadcasting, and the homogenization of programming on TV and radio. Allowing big media companies to own even more media outlets in our local communities will only exacerbate those problems.

Dear FCC,

RE: Docket 06-121, Media Ownership Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking

I strongly object to any action taken by the FCC to relaax or eliminate media ownership limits. Media consolidation is to blame for the declinde in quality and quantity of local new, the dirth of minority ownership in broadcasting. To allow even more media outlets will only worsen these problems. Diverse, competitive sources, independenat sources will feed our democratic way of life instead of thwarting it.

Allowing big media companies to own even more media outlets in our local communities will only exacerbate those problems. We have already seen some of the bad effects of media consolidation in our country: the omission and "spinning" of news has not enabled voters to make informed choices; this has been reflected in the events of the last few years. Information -- from diverse, competitive and independent sources -- is vitally important to the health of our democracy. I urge you to hold the line against any further consolidation of our media, and to listen to the voices of the people -- not the media corporations -- on this critical issue.

Media consolidation has resulted in decline in both the quality and quantity of local news, the dearth of minority ownership in broadcasting, and the mind-numbing homogenization of programming on TV and radio.

Perhaps that is indeed the intent of the current members of the FCC--an egregious and perhaps irrevocable violation of the public trust.

I urge the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) NOT TO relax or eliminate media ownership limits.

One of the things I like about America is its diversity. When I listen to different radio programs and news programs from a VARIETY of stations/channels, I get to see who makes a statement that fits me.

If I have just a few to listen to and they're all saying the same thing, it's like having to choose between vanilla and vanilla.

If all the news were coming from the White House these days, the whole country would be living according to lies. We cannot get the truth from some sources. Therefore, there MUST be many alternatives available. I do not want the FCC to take away our maximum chances for this.

We need many owners of the media and none should scarf up more turf than a small limited amount.

Dear FCC,

RE: Docket 06-121, Media Ownership Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking

I strongly opppose any action by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to relax or eliminate media ownership limits. In fact, I believe strong anti-trust laws should be enacted. Having a few huge corporations deciding what the public should hear about is one of the biggest problems this country is facing right now. These huge corporations shape politics, along with many other issues vital to the well-being of the American people, and this is wrong. Our founding fathers must be rolling in their graves to see the kind of propaganda and disinformation that is passed along our airwaves these days.

In addition, media consolidation is to blame for the decline in the quality and quantity of local news, the dearth of minority ownership in broadcasting, and the homogenization of programming on TV and radio. Allowing big media companies to own even more media outlets in our local communities will only exacerbate those problems.

Information -- from diverse, competitive and independent sources -- is vitally important to the health of our democracy. I urge you to hold the line against further consolidation of our media, and to listen to the voices of the people -- not the media corporations -- on this critical issue.
