Reuters is reporting that Ajit Pai and his band of telecom shills who masquerade as the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) plan to get rid of landmark rules established in the 1970s in order to slow the consolidation of media outlets into the hands of a powerful few. The U.S. Federal Communications Commission will vote at its November meeting to rollback landmark media ownership regulations that limit the ability of companies to own multiple TV stations and newspapers in the same market and remove other restrictions, Chairman Ajit Pai told a congressional panel Wednesday. [...] The FCC in 1975 banned cross-ownership of a newspaper and broadcast station in the same market, unless it granted a waiver, to ensure a diversity of opinions. How do you create a world where fake news is not only presented as real news, but becomes the only news you can find?
