MICHAEL POWELL IS QUOTED IN THE WASHINGTON POST on media diversity:

“Our Democracy is strong,” Powell said in a prepared statement. “It would be irresponsible to ignore the diversity of viewpoints provided by cable, satellite and the Internet.”

True enough, but that diversity has appeared as much in spite of the FCC as because of it. And where’s Powell on diversity-enhancing low-power FM radio broadcasting, now that big broadcasters’ claims of interference have been shown to be bogus?
