Interesting piece, however given the current political climate I wouldn't hold out much hope that things will change. Based on that article I don't think I'd go so far as to say John McCain is involved in efforts to reverse, reform whatever term you'd like to use. Just as a point of reference Senator McCain was the gentleman who introduced legislation that would eliminate the crossover ownership ban between publications and broadcast outlets in the same market, so I would expect him to be interested in this movement, I'm not sure his interest would be supportive but hey, he might surprise me!~
