Federal Communications Commission chief of staff Daniel Gonzalez did not inform FCC Chairman Kevin Martin when he became a director of MCube Petroleum, a Seattle-based oil and gas venture now under federal investigation for fraud, Martin told reporters Thursday. Martin took two questions on the Gonzalez-MCube affair before turning to reporters interested in discussing routine FCC matters. Asked why Gonzalez was moonlighting as a corporate board member, Martin replied: “Well, I don’t know anything about the allegations you’re talking about against the corporation. The commission staff all have to comply with whatever the Office of Government Ethics rules about what outside activities they can take on. I’m sure he ended up complying with those.”
