Re: Capstar Strikes Again



This strikes me that it is time for Congress to revisit the Communications
act and provide that LOCAL be put back into Broadcasting.  These big
conglomerates will decimate broadcasting as we know it today.   It is time
to bring down the curtain on this experiment in big business owning stations
in every market and especially in the seacoast of NH, where Capstar is the
majority owner of all but 4 stations in the market.
