We now have an online version of a petition in support of an FCC hearing in Kansas City up.
In a nutshell, the FCC is poised to further eliminate restrictions on how many media outlets corporations can own - basically they would allow one company to basically control the tv, radio and newspapers in a city, etc. The FCC chair reluctantly agreed to hold hearings for public input before implementing rule changes, and we think KC needs to be heard from.
If you need more information as to what this is all about, you can email me at this address or call 816-333-3113, or email Alice Kitchen at Akitchen44@aol.com.
Tons of information is also available at www.freepress.net.
If you haven't already signed a paper version of the petition, please consider signing on at

If you have an email list where this would not be unwelcome, please send it on.
thanks!
