Em defesa da emissão local

O presidente da reguladora norte-americana FCC:

« “Satellite radio is an important service, it’s very popular, and it’s grown very rapidly, but I think its fundamentally different from what local, free over-the-air broadcasters can provide, and we need to recognize that. What local broadcasters are able to do is provide unique insights and a unique service, particularly during times of crisis. We don’t want everything to just become a nationalized service. We still want that to have those local broadcasters disseminating local news and entertainment to consumers»
