FCC Chairman

Watching C-span...legislators questioning the FCC commissioners about their rush to allow the mega corps
to become mega mega. The public and the congressional reps all say, slow down, and get priorities straight.
The chair, Martin acts and talks like he is 'the aurthority' and the president of the us. He spoke to the
legislators as if they were his personal advisors and bluntly said he was going to do it 'his way' no matter
what anyone said.  Isn't he accountable to anyone?

I think the Congress can enact legislation changing FCC's rules and the actions of its 5-member board (3 of which are Bush appointees, and hence will follow Martin's lead), so that Congress isn't powerless, just spineless.

Wow. That's amazing. They sounded like they couldn't do anything.
Thanks for your comment.
