From Phil Kerpen, president of American Commitment (americancommitment.org), referring to the FCC’s new regulations on net neutrality:
There has been almost no coverage of the president strong-arming what is supposed to be an independent agency, or the highly questionable policy he has proposed that would reverse the past two decades of Internet policy and install a heavy-handed regulate-and-tax alternative.

The article, “Nets Barely Cover Obama’s Internet Regulations,” from mrc News Busters, notes that in the last three months, the TV network news shows have devoted all of 3 minutes and 38 seconds to proposed regulations that would turn the Internet into a potentially heavily regulated public utility, effectively ending the freewheeling Internet we’ve come to know and love. The networks devoted 67 minutes and 49 seconds to the “Deflategate” football scandal over the course of one week.
