- First Amendment changes when you change channels?
-
Mr. Powell is trying to apply 1950's law and reality to 21st Century reality. When these FCC rules of governing the airwaves were written, the airwaves were free. Anyone with a TV or radio could be entertained for free and still can. So, I say the FCC has every right to monitor those airwaves.
This all changes when you introduce paid subscription-based channels. I pay for HBO, MTV, CNN, and many other channels. The networks are still free (or can be) but on satellite/cable I am paying for those channels. Directly or indirectly I'm paying for them and the FCC should keep its hands off. - Posted by: dj_45_cal Posted on: 07/14/04 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
