The news blackout of new FCC media ownership news continues apace. The only live coverage of the hearing itself will be on C-SPAN, starting at 9:30 AM EDT, and only available to people with access to cable TV, satellite TV, or the Internet. Obviously, the evil VRWC doesn’t want you to know what’s going on, right?
UPDATE: Howie Kurtz discussed the pending rule change today on his “Reliable Sources” show on CNN; he clearly didn’t get the memo. Shhh…..Howie, this is supposed to be a secret.
ANOTHER UPDATE: Lou Josephs blogged it live. Local radio ownership rules were actually tightened, much to the dismay of Clear Channel, and newspapers were allowed easier access to TV and radio stations. I don’t see why this was a big deal.
