The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) is considering weakening the rules that limit how many media outlets one company can own. That means big companies could get even bigger, and one company could be permitted to own a television station and the newspaper in one community. That's bad news for our democracy, for diverse viewpoints, and for arts and culture.

Tell the FCC you oppose weakening of media ownership rules.

Adding your own thoughts to this message makes a big difference, but we've included a brief sentence in the sample form below to get you started.

Follow these 3 easy steps to help out.
1. Look over the message below, and feel free to add your own comments. Using your own words makes the message more meaningful.

Regarding FCC Docket 06-121: I oppose any efforts to weaken media ownership limits, including the limits that prevent one company from owning the newspaper and a local television station in the same community. Increased media consolidation allows too few corporations to control what the public hears, sees and reads.
