Mar 31, 2003 12:00 PM
FCC Commissioner Michael J. Copps is holding a public hearing on
media ownership 12:30 p.m. to 5 p.m., March 31 in at Duke Law School in
Durham, N.C.
A public hearing was held today to discuss
media ownership.
U.S. Reps. Richard Burr (R-NC) and David Price (D-NC) and FCC
Commissioner Jonathan S. Adelstein will join Copps at the hearing,
which consists of three major panels – “Localism and
Community Standards,” “News,” and
“Diversity.” After the panels, the floor will be open to
the general public to make comments.
Copps, who is holding the hearing over the objections of FCC
chairman Michael Powell, said the purpose is to give citizens outside
of Washington, D.C., an opportunity to voice their opinions about media
concentration.
“This is the biggest decision the FCC will make this year, and
it will affect your television, radio, newspapers, cable TV, and
Internet news and entertainment for years to come,” Copps said.
“I hope everyone concerned will come make their voices
heard.”
Members of the public may also participate in the proceeding by
filing comments electronically using the FCC’s Electronic Comment
Filing System (ECFS) and ECFS Express at www.fcc.gov.
