“It is downright
anti-democratic to allow these corporate conglomerates to allow greed to overcome our right as
Americans to know. The airwaves, after all, belong to the people, and if we are going to make
certain that the people have a chance to be heard, then we have to insure that there is a
diversity of ownership, a diversity of voice, and that everybody has an opportunity to
participate.” — Carol Moseley Brown.
