Net neutrality
| I like Copps simply because he's taken positions in
| favor of the FCC being in service to the public. He seems
| to be an honest man trying to do the right thing. I don't
| even know whether he's Democrat or Republican.

| So did Michael Powell, when he chaired the FCC,
Did what? Favor the public? When he left the FCC he
became president of the National Cable and Telecommunications
Association. It's my understanding that's the main lobbying group
against Net neutrality now. *In other words, he's leading the
charge to give the Internet over to the people who own the wires.*
I can't say that I really know what Powell did when he was with
the FCC, but his actions seem to speak. When the top henhouse
manager leaves to become the top fox lobbyist, I don't figure his
position on hens should be trusted.
