"The Commission is looking for input on our rules and how they impact the three core goals they are intended to further: competition, diversity and localism. The decisions we will make about our ownership rules will be as difficult as they are critical. The media touches almost every aspect of our lives. We are dependent upon it for our news, our information and our entertainment. Indeed, the opportunity to express diverse viewpoints lies at the heart of our democracy."
-- FCC Chairman Kevin Martin
