Senate Begins Process to Reverse New F.C.C. Rules on Media
Topic: Media 7:48 pm EDT, Jun 19, 2003

] Moving with unusual speed, the Senate began today the
] legislative process of reversing the recent decision by
] the Federal Communications Commission to loosen media
] ownership rules and enable the nation's largest newspaper
] and broadcasting conglomerates to grow larger.
]
] A broadly bipartisan group of the Senate Commerce
] Committee approved legislation by voice vote to restore
] the previous lower limits on the number of television
] stations a single company can own and to reimpose most of
] the restrictions that prevent a company from owning both
] a newspaper and a radio or television station in the same
] city. The vote was a stinging rebuke of the F.C.C.'s
] chairman, Michael K. Powell, the architect of the
] deregulation.
