why isn't anyone regulating the FCC

Good ole Rupert Murdoch, aka satan himself is at it again. He is trying to aquire Newsday. I just don't understand how government officials and media hoes can sit back and say well he's at it again, but turn their heads, again.

According to the NY Times article, a senator, Byron L Dorgan is trying to pass a bill that will quash the current FCC deregulation rules and reinstate the old ones which would not allow anyone to own more than one newspaper or one tv station in the top 20 markets. The current rule allows the ownership of more than one newspaper and one tv station in those markets if there are at minimum 8 independent sources of news in the city. This it utter bullshit because every fucking zine could be considered an independent newsource.

The senator goes on to say “It’s exactly the kind of consolidation I would hope the commission finds is not in the public interest because the free flow of information in this country is not accommodated by having fewer and fewer voices determine what is out there,” Mr. Dorgan said. “They try to argue that there are all these outlets — the Internet, television, radio, newspapers and so on. It may be more outlets, but it’s the same ventriloquists. You have five or six corporate interests that determine what most Americans see, hear and read.”

Why don't people see this, its so clear! In 2003, when Colin Powels son was the head of the FCC major deregulations took place and who is benefiting most from it- Murdoch, owner of Fox News Corp. and who do you suppose is threatening to veto the bill- good ole pres bush. Isn't that a coincidink. It is no suprise to me that the conservative forces in this country, whom happen to hold position to veto such bills, is joining forces with the other conservative forces in this country.

This is the problem people, why are we allowing ourselves to be forcefed this trash when it is so obviously biased! I am not suggesting that other news sources aren't unbiased, because they are also only by the very few as well. Get off your ass and demand a bigger variety of newsources. What happened to the rules against monopolies? Are the media conglomerates exempt from this?

I am staring down the barrel of an oppressed state who is willingly accepting that our self proclaimed "freedom" is free after all. That's right kiddies, drink the Kool-aid, invite Big Brother into your home, make him some mac and cheese and apple pie. Maybe, if you're good he will rub your belly and make all your little worries about individualism go away.

The saddest thing in this country is that we are given so many options to go out and expose the bullshit because of our freedom of speech yet we are so willing to place our hands behind our backs and let the brainwashing begin.

REPENT!
