Free Press filed extensive comments in response to a Federal Communications Commission Notice of Inquiry issued in the 2010 Quadrennial Media Ownership Review. In its comments, Free Press demonstrates that media consolidation adversely affects both the quantity and quality of local news and information from competing sources and diverse owners. Free Press further cautions the FCC against self-serving industry arguments that more consolidation creates "efficiencies" that enable industry to improve or continue the provision of news and information to the public.
