BROADCAST WORKERS OPPOSE DEREG
[SOURCE: Broadcasting&Cable, AUTHOR: John Eggerton]
While broadcast station owners have generally been asking the FCC to loosen their ownership rules, unions representing thousands of their employees have been asking for just the opposite. In filings with the FCC on its media ownership review, the American Federation of Television and Radio Artists, the Communications Workers of America and the AFL-CIO have asked the FCC to retain or tighten its rules. The unions represent more than 80,000 reporters, anchors, sportscasters, talk show hosts, producers, writers and many other workers in front of and behind the cameras.
