No more Rupert Murdoch!

For those of us who don't want a few big companies deciding what we see, hear, and read in the news, it's a bad day.

The Bush-appointed FCC just voted to loosen media ownership rules so media titans like Rupert Murdoch can swallow up more local news outlets. They did this despite a huge public outcry--when the FCC asked for public comments, 99% opposed media consolidation!

The last thing our democracy needs is fewer independent media voices and more news outlets like FOX. Congress has the power to reverse this rule change, Please sign this petition asking Congress to do that. This issue is very important.
