Score One for Media Diversity
Bush doesn't his way for a change:
The Bush administration will not ask the Supreme Court to overturn a ruling that struck down the Federal Communication Commission's sweeping changes of media ownership rules. [...] The Republican-dominated FCC completed two years of review and voted 3-2 along party lines in 2003 to ease decades-old ownership restrictions. The changes included allowing a single company to own TV stations and a newspaper in the same area.
This is very good news, indeed! It should seriously slow the growth of the Media Borg.
