We're thrilled that President-Elect Obama has reportedly chosen Julius Genachowski as the next FCC Chairman. Genachowski is one of the principal authors of the Obama campaign's Technology and Innovation Policy platform, which we have heartily endorsed for its support of several critical issues:
- Encourage diversity in media and limit consolidation and concentration.
- Robust broadband Internet access for all Americans that is open to all content (Net Neutrality)
- Respect for the First Amendment
- Allowing parents, not government, to decide what content is appropriate for their children. Technology and better information are the ways to deal with inappropriate content, not censorship.
We eagerly look forward to working with Mr. Genachowski at the FCC.
Stumble It!
