When a handful of companies can control what millions of Americans view you're inviting censorship. The media needs to remain a place where dissenting views can be heard and not allowed to be stifled because a few wealthy and powerful individuals don't want a particular message to be heard. This bill reinforces that view by undoing an FCC action to eliminate media ownership restrictions.
