Some local governments not happy with the FCC

Local governments feel the new rules that the FCC pushed thru, amount to a "federalization" of the cable franchising process. They contend the change will mean a loss of local oversight, fewer dollars for public and government access channels and the possibility of "cherry picking" by companies that choose to serve only the richest neighborhoods. I'd tend to agree with them and I hope that enough people pay attention to this issue as well as let their elected representatives know that they don't support this.
