Interesting article, check out this quote.
new loopholes the Commissioners are concerned about involve the FCC's openness to reversing its presumption that a proposed newspaper-broadcast combination is not in the public interest if the newspaper or broadcast outlet in the combination has "failed" or is "failing" by FCC criteria, or if the combination will add news broadcasts on a station that didn't previously air local news.
"We are the CC Borg. Lower your shields and surrender your broadcast stations. We will add your biological and creative distinctiveness to our own. Your broadcast personality will adapt to service us. Resistance is futile."
