FCC Diversity Committee meeting on Thursday

Citizen Link has some details:

The FCC’s Advisory Committee on Diversity for Communications in the Digital Age plans to meet Thursday. The group exists to “make recommendations to the FCC regarding policies and practices that will further enhance the ability of minorities and women to participate in telecommunications and related industries.”

Seton Motley, director of communications for the Media Research Center, said the commission represents more than a dozen Leftist groups, but not a single conservative organization.

He said the goal is clear.

“The Left, no longer comfortable with trying the top-down, all-out assault that is the ‘Fairness’ Doctrine, intends instead to silence conservative and Christian talk via this broadcast license manipulation,” Motley wrote in a recent blog post.

“If they can succeed in making it impossible for talk radio to operate as a business, talk radio will cease to operate. Leftist problem solved. ‘Media diversity’ is just the latest Leftist attempt to get this done.”

The Media Research Center will also be following the action on their blog, MRCAction.org
