I Want To Beat Up That FCC'King Kevin Martin

By Tim Hollis

Coleridge noted that "the most savage of men are not beasts. They are something worse...much worse." FCC Chairman Kevin Martin is much worse and is pushing for immediate unmediated media conglomeration in plenty of time for Christmas. Witnessing his surly demeanor one might wish for someone to lace his cappuccino with a wall-melting dose of LSD...but I digress. Martin remains firm in his resolve, despite unanimous public opposition and the shrill protestations of senatorial eunuchs, to hand over eternal impunity to his billionaire masters.

Owners of The United States of America fear that otherwise public discourse might become informed, thereby disputing the sanctioned analyses put forth by such journalistic luminaries as Bill O'Reilly and Glenn Beck. I don't know about you but I would hate to miss out on the penetrating insights of guests like Charlie Daniels, Dog the Bounty Hunter and Travis Tritt because they're what make mainstream news coverage the hallmark of scintillating erudition that it is today.

The public debate in Chicago & Seattle(specially) showed the American Public were against this agenda item. In fact, most of the FCC is against it, but the Rupert Murdochs and Reverend Moons of the world want it...along with reactionary republican neo-cons.
Kevin Martin waited for the last possible minute to announce the public meetings(he tried to not have them at all). It still didn't work, there was much opposition by the American Public, but again, the bushies don't care what the American Public want...only their campaign contributors and rich lobbyists.
