FCC Hires Conservative Indecency Critic

This approach is one of those places where media reformers of all convictions can agree. Channel by channel would be good for indie programming, lower rates, and if it pleases everyone, why not do it? FCC Hires Conservative Indecency Critic: "Cable operators are facing demands that they offer subscribers channel-by-channel program selection, in part so consumers need not subsidize racy programming that is part of broad programming tiers. Such an approach is favored by consumer groups that want to cut monthly cable bills and by many cultural conservatives, including the Concerned Women group that Nance served. "
