The Federal Communications Commission's two Democrats said Friday they are frustrated by lack of information on the agency's review of media ownership rules and their chairman's refusal to make proposed changes public Sens " He said he asked Powell to make the recommendations public in a briefing to the commissioners, but the chairman refused "It would be helpful to him to eliminate the charge that the public isn't being involved in this," Adelstein said Ernest Hollings of South Carolina, Ron Wyden of Oregon and Byron Dorgan of North Dakota said eased ownership restrictions will leave a few giant media companies in control of what people see, read and hear S Adelstein said he was pessimistic his contributions would be included in the draft Copps has traveled around the country with fellow FCC Democrat Jonathan Adelstein in recent months to get public comment on the review He said most cable channels and sources of online news already are owned by a few large media companies households or owning a newspaper and a radio or television station in the same city Powell is not obligated to grant a delay "Most people in this country have no idea what's about to happen to them even though their very democracy is at stake," he said Last year, the agency combined reviews of a half-dozen rules into the single effort now under way " Copps spoke on Capitol Hill alongside

do whatever that majority wants," said Paul Levinson, chairman of the department of communications and media studies at Fordham University Brent Bozell III, president of the Parents Television Council, a conservative advocacy group " In advance of the summit, the four major networks on Tuesday announced a new advertising campaign to highlight the V-chip, which uses the voluntary TV ratings
