  • Five Counties. Five Debates. No Excuses
    5 COUNTIES. 5 DEBATES. NO EXCUSES. Rep. Matt Cartwright Cartwright for Congress 216 Wyoming Ave Scranton, PA 18503 Dear Representative Cartwright, Representative Democracy, the great American experiment, has only succeeded because of our shared commitment to an informed citizenry and open debate. Debate and freedom of expression are basic human rights, and the foundation to any democratic government. Representative Democracy needs more debate – not less. Voters should hear every argument and then make up their own minds what they thinK is right and how they want to be governed. I fear our representatives have become lazy in their responsibility to the people to have open discussions about the state of our country, especially at a time of crisis where our health is threatened and our safety is at risk. Which is why I find it vital that you and I engage in five debates so that the people of the 8th District of Pennsylvania will have substantive information in which to make an informed decision this fall. Each county in our district is important, with different concerns and opportunities. Many counties have felt neglected during your many terms in office. In light of this, I hope you will agree that we owe it to the residents of each of our five counties to have a debate take place in each county. Therefore, I propose we have at least one debate hosted in each of Wayne County, PiKe County, LacKawanna County, Luzerne County, and Monroe County. I have asKed my campaign to worK with yours to set up debates for this election cycle.

The Local Radio Station Ownership Rule in its current form, including current numerical maximums on the number of AM/FM radio stations that one owner can own in a single market, and also including the current AM/FM subcaps, remain necessary in order to promote diversity, competition, and localism in AM/FM radio in local communities served. Importantly, the Commission should not expand its current definition of the relevant product market beyond broadcast radio stations for purposes of analyzing the Local Radio Station Ownership Rule. The Commission must not abdicate its legal obligation to promote the public interest in diversity, localism, and competition in radio broadcasting at local market levels by applying a purely competitive analysis of how the AM/FM radio industry is perceived to compete with other audio and Internet platforms for global advertising revenue.
