"Today, we gather to talk about equality and justice in our broadcast media. Neither equality nor justice exists there yet. We’re not even moving in the right direction toward equality and justice. Minority issues don't get decent coverage. Minorities don't own enough media. At its core, this issue is about civil rights, and one of those rights is accessible media that reflect and nourish the diverse genius of our nation.â€
-- FCC Commissioner Michael Copps
