Friend,
The Trump administration is not beating the oligarchy accusations anytime soon: Brendan Carr’s FCC wants to let a few small billionaires own even more of the airwaves. Giving companies like Nexstar and Sinclair even more power would be devastating for on-air diversity — and severely cut back on reporting that speaks truth to power.
We’re submitting comments to the FCC in opposition to raising the broadcast-ownership cap — and we need all the help we can get before Friday’s deadline. Add your name right away. *One click on the link or button will instantly add your name to our petition if we have your details on file.*
To FCC Commissioners:
I oppose the FCC’s proposed elimination of the national broadcast-ownership cap because it will lead to even more media consolidation. This will reduce my access to diverse viewpoints and civic information in my local media market, undermining free speech and democracy.
Do not loosen media-ownership limits.
