Congress Turns Up The Heat on FCC's Chairman
Fletch writes "FCC Chairman Kevin Martin could be in for an uncomfortable spring, as House Energy Committee Chair John Dingel (D-MI) has requested a truckload of FCC paperwork relating to some controversial decisions Martin has made. Those include the FCC's reversal on the a la carte cable issue and newspaper-television cross-ownership restrictions. 'This request has got to be turning the FCC completely upside down. Significantly, it appears to reflect a bipartisan discontent with Martin's performance. Democrats and some Republicans are upset over his recent move to relax one of the agency's key media ownership rules, as well as the rushed manner in which he handled the matter late last year. Other Republicans dislike what they see as Martin's persecution of the cable industry, especially Comcast.' The Committee originally announced its intention to investigate the FCC in January."
Apparently YOU cared enough to comment, and in a particularly childish way. And the fact that you are WRONG about my comments is just icing on the cake.
What makes you think I was "whining"? It wasn't even my post that I was commenting about. If it were, I might accept that I was whining, but it was not. I was merely making an observation. One that had nothing at all to do with myself.
If you want to criticize somebody, why don't you go criticize them for something real? And maybe try to get it right next time.
