however, I think it will get worse with these rules. And, I have written at least 3 letters, signed x petitions and posted at least one public comment to the FCC before this happened. Thousands more did the same thing. The FCC does not care, not even a little bit, what Americans think about media consolidation. I really do wonder how big the bribes are for these people.
