Fwd: Re: FCC To Hold Hearings On Ownership Limits

["Laurence Glavin" <lglavin@lycos.com>]

It's been observed lately that although the public at-large
doesn't overtly complain about the changes in radio (I'll
leave off television), they HAVE voted with their dials.  Radio & Records and Duncan have documented a 
continuing decline in time-spent-listening, especially among 
the most ardently-sought demograph (not mine).  My unofficial
rating service, the one in which I observe vehicles passing
by with tops and/or windows down, indicates to me that a large percentage of people playing so-called music in their
vehicles are using CDs and cassettes...I rarely hear an announcer. (And I never hear harpsichord-drenched "classical" music, indicating that some diary holders write in WCRB if it's played in their offices ).

Who are these groups?  Who wants to change these
rules?  Is there an organized effort?  I pay attention
to these kind of things and rarely hear any discussion
of this issue in the media -- print or broadcast.  My
view is that no one cares other than a few people on
lists like this.
