FCC Approves Media Consolidation
evenprime writes "You can expect more media consolidation in the future. CBS is reporting that the FCC has approved the media deregulation that was previously discussed on Slashdot. Expect Clear Channel, Viacom and their kin to get bigger, and the radio to have even less diversity (a situation that some people think is responsible for falling CD sales)."
The NPR is not real news, nor is PBS. It's overly biased liberal bullshit.
Slashdot is your best bet for unbiased, informative and insightful news!
I don't need no instructions to know how to rock!!!!
it was so hard for the bush administration to manupulate all these news sources so that they publish their version of the news stories. hopefully, the Iraq-War III would have better coverage suitable for Bush Jr-III (does such beast exist?) administration. now it will only require 5 phone calls to media head to tell them what to publish.
as for myself, i read domestic media only for domestic news. all international news, i get through foreign sources exclusively which are not tied to any US multinational sources.
No its not, we don't want you here.
OMG you americans. Fucking your selves up your asses. Hey you know your privatized pensions? HILARIOUS. What better way to fuck yourselves then to make yourselves shareholders. Shareholders who expect the company to do well therefore screwing employees. Oh wait you are all mostly employees. So wait you're screwing yourselves?
And then this, you can even let your voices be heard over the inane chatter of boring and obnoxious mono-media?
That's great. You guys are FUCKED and you are doing it to your selves. You let yourselves get caught up in futile fear mongering petty shit with a president who rules over you not chosen by the people but chosen by some conservative judges.
Have fun you suckers.
Then why were they bitching and moaning about it...CNN, CBS, ABC, and NBC are all opposed to this, why didn't they stand up before last week, could it be that their viewers could give a damn? Seriously, what so bad about this, are you telling me that Ted Turner couldn't outspend Murdoch in this environment, bullshit, he's got close to a billion in liquid assets as we speak from dumping a ton of AOL/TW stock. Teddy knew this was coming and I'm sure he and Diller and all the other closet commies have big plans for spreading their message of lost freedom and soverignity, too bad we now have other sources to listen to, like Fox, Limbaugh, Hannity, etc.

NPR SUCKS! The liberals couldn't make it in the Open Market, so they get the government to sponsor their shows. NPR is the biggest piece of liberal trash in the world, and I gotta pay for it. Communism?
I want my rights back. I was actually using them when our government stole them after 9/11.
Leave it to the republicans and their mindless conservative followers to actually make government BIGGER than it was before.
