It has just come to my attention that GOP FCC Commissioner Ajit Pai wrote an oped gloating over the FCC's Zapple Decision. Trouble is, he does not well understand the underpinnings of the decision. Compare his piece here: http://www.redstate.com/2014/05/30/protecting-free-speech-fcc-regulation/ with the piece I wrote in the BRAD BLOG: http://www.suewilsonreports.com/2014/05/may-19-2014-originally-published-at.html
.
PS: I have asked Mr. Pai to speak with the FCC Media Bureau to get them to send me the decision. It has been two months and I still have not received anything from the FCC about this. This is especially significant when you realize that as a private citizen, I had to file the Petitions to Deny the Licenses of WTMJ and WISN on paper (via Federal Express.) The corporate citizens Clear Channel and Journal Communications, on the other hand, had no such burden. They can file electronically.
