The FCC also changed how local radio markets are defined to correct a problem that has allowed companies to exceed ownership limits in some areas Some lawmakers critical of the FCC have proposed legislation to counter relaxed regulations Fellow Democrat Jonathan Adelstein said the changes are "likely to damage the media landscape for decades to come The agency also eased rules governing local TV ownership so one company can own two television stations in more markets and three stations in the largest cities such as New York and Los Angeles gov Critics bought television and newspaper ads, wrote letters and e-mails, and demonstrated outside television stations owned by major media companies They say most people still get news mainly from television and newspapers, and combining the two is dangerous because those entities will not monitor each other and provide differing opinions The provision lifts all "cross-ownership" restrictions in markets with nine or more TV stations households instead of 35 percent The critics of eased rules include consumer advocates, civil rights and religious groups, small broadcasters, writers, musicians, academicians and the National Rifle Association " The FCC said a single company can now own TV stations that reach 45 percent of U and Viacom Inc Democrats demand more public scrutiny of the changes while Republicans support Powell wanted the "cross-ownership" ban lifted "Local audiences will be the big winners These companies argued that existing ownership rules were outmoded on a media landscape that has been substantially altered by cable TV, satellite broadcasts and the Internet As the vote approached, opposition intensified owns Fox News Channel, 20th Century Fox TV and film studios, the New York Post and other media properties He said the changes empowers "a new media elite" to control news and entertainment The major networks wanted the cap eliminated, while smaller broadcasters said a higher cap would allow the networks to gobble up stations and take away local control of programming Some ads took on Rupert Murdoch, whose News Corp Smaller markets would face some limits and cross-ownership would be banned in markets with three or fewer TV stations The rule changes are expected to face court challenges from media companies wanting more deregulation and consumer groups seeking stricter restrictions FCC Votes to Ease Media Ownership Rules Jun 2, 10:57 AM EST Federal regulators relaxed decades-old rules restricting media ownership Monday, permitting companies to buy more television stations and own a newspaper and a broadcast outlet in the same city " News Corp "Our actions will advance our goals of diversity and localism," Powell said Many previous proposed changes were unfinished or were sent back to the FCC after court challenges â€â€?â€â€?â€â€? On the Net: FCC: http://www "The relaxation of the rules will allow newspaper-owned broadcast stations to offer more and better local news and public service programming," said John Sturm, president of the Newspaper Association of America Lawmakers have split mainly along party lines He said the old restrictions were too outdated to survive legal challenges and the FCC "wrote rules to match the times The FCC largely ended a ban on joint ownership of a newspaper and a broadcast station in the same city Large newspaper companies such as Tribune Co " The Democrats said the new rules mean a single company can own in one city up to three TV stations, eight radio stations, the cable TV system, cable TV stations and the only daily newspaper , which owns CBS and UPN, stand to benefit from a higher national TV ownership cap because mergers have left them above the 35 percent level The government adopted the ownership rules between 1941 and 1975 to encourage competition and prevent monopoly control of the media Critics say the eased restrictions would likely lead to a wave of mergers landing a few giant media companies in control of even more of what the public sees, hears and reads S Murdoch told a Senate committee last month he has no plan for a media buying spree after the changes, other than his proposed acquisition of DirecTV, the nation's largest satellite television provider The decision was a victory for FCC Chairman Michael Powell, who has faced growing criticism from diverse interests opposed to his move toward deregulation A 1996 law requires the FCC to study ownership rules every two years and repeal or modify regulations determined to be no longer in the public interest "The more you dig into this order the worse things get," said Michael Copps, one of the commission's Democrats and Gannett Inc fcc The Republican-controlle d Federal Communications Commission voted 3-2 â€â€? along party lines â€â€? to adopt a series of changes favored by media companies Those companies, along with NBC, persuaded an appeals court last year to reject that cap and send it back to the FCC for revision There was a lot more to Fred than I think many of us saw," said Joe Negri, a guitarist who on the show played the royal handyman in the Neighborhood of Make-Believe and owner of "Negri's Music Shop " Negri said Rogers refused to accept shoddy ad-libbing by guests who may have thought they could slack off during a kid's show During the Persian Gulf War, Rogers told youngsters that "all children shall be well taken care of in this neighborhood and beyond â€â€? in times of war and in times of peace," and he asked parents to promise their children they would always be safe " Rogers came out of broadcasting retirement last year to record public service announcements for the Public Broadcasting Service telling parents how to help their children deal with the anniversary of the Sept McFeely on the show â€â€?â€â€?â€â€?
