Are the democrats screaming because they feel a threat to their ideology, or screaming because they have broader range of pseudocontrol? i suspect their objections are mostly pragmatic. they suspect (as i do) that media consolidation will result in a more conservative media.

After reading the FCC release, and seeing the limits of ownership per market, it seems a little like they are being pragmatic. I know in the market where I live, people are screaming about Clear Channel Media and their "conservative" influence. Alas, the only daily newspaper, and most of the alphabet soups are quite left leaning in their media reporting. Radio is one bastion of the balance of information.
