Dennis Kucinich made a surprise appearance<\/a> at the National Conference for Media Reform. Before the crowd of 3,000, he announced that there is going to be a new Domestic Policy Subcommittee of the House Government Reform Committee, and that he would be the chairman. The subcommittee will oversee several government agencies, including the FCC.<\/p>\n

Kucinich intends to address a variety of concerns for today’s media, including ownership caps, consolidation, network neutrality, and the fairness doctrine. He told the conference:<\/p>\n

“The media reform movement is opening up holding the media to a higher standard of accountability […] The urgency of media reform has never been more obvious. The media has become a servant very narrow corporate interests.”<\/span><\/p>\n

I hope that he forces the other Democratic presidential candidates to take these issues seriously.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
