FCC and Media Mergers - Call your Reps by Wednesday!

[C hristian]

Dear friend,

If you're concerned about a few big companies controlling our country's
access to news, information, and entertainment, please join me in
letting Congress know now.

Later this week or early next week, the Senate will likely take up its
last major vote on media reform, and it'll be very close. After a
grassroots groundswell tipped the balance toward rolling back the FCC
rule change that would allow greater media concentration, lobbyists
from big media conglomerates have been working around the clock to tip
it back.

On Wednesday, MoveOn.org will be holding a crucial press conference
with Senator Dorgan (D-ND) and Senator Snowe (R-ME) and groups across
the political spectrum to highlight the broad opposition to the FCC
rule change. MoveOn needs to show that over 100,000 people have
voiced their demand that the Senate vote to roll back the rule
change. Please help us reach 100,000 signers by this Wednesday --
you can join me in signing at:

Together, we can make sure that America's media is diverse,
competitive, and balanced.

Thanks.
