Is the FCC drawing a new regulatory map?


Author: Matt Kapko

While FCC Chairman Julius Genachowski is digging into wireless matters such as competition, innovation and third-party application control perhaps more swiftly (and publicly) than his predecessor, the Federal Communications Commission is only asking questions at this point. Questions are cheap. Policymaking is an entirely different matter that must measure political fallout against results. And more important: the nation is still digging out of the greatest economic challenge since the Great Depression. Even while the FCC's recent inquiries have surely rattled some nerves, it would be a tough stretch to suggest Genachowski has a pre-determined goal of radical regulation.
