Dear FCC:
Please prevent big media from getting any bigger and instead encourage a more diverse,
independent and minority ownership.
It seems to me that all businesses including the media get swallowed up by a bigger fish thus making
the products similar. With the media it means that there is no difference in what we hear, see, or
read. It express only the opinion of the owner.
We need to hear, see, and read many different sides of the issue to be informed on the issues. As
Paul Harvey says, we need to hear "the rest of the story."
Please keep the media from turning into a monopoly.
