Digg this Question About "Fox Using Fake Footage" for Tomorrow's Digg Dialogg with FCC's Chairman
Edited on Mon Nov-23-09 03:22 PM by Turborama
Digg Dialogg: Julius Genachowski

19 hours, 29 minutes, 18 seconds, until questions close

From the FCC’s recent activity favoring Net Neutrality to their emphasis on making broadband universally accessible, there’s much to talk about with the FCC Chairman, Julius Genachowski, during our next Digg Dialogg. He’ll be sitting down with Walt Mossberg, Personal Technology columnist for The Wall Street Journal and Co-Executive Editor of AllThingsD, who will pose the most popular questions submitted and voted upon by you. From now until Tuesday, November 24th at 10am ET you can submit and Digg up questions to decide which will be asked.

You may have heard that FOX News has been caught multiple times using fake footage in their broadcasting and posing it as "news". Don't you think the FCC should be more worried about news stations not reporting the truth to the American people, and not so much about swear words being on TV at 10 PM?


There's some questions about Net Neutrality which are worth Digging, too.

If any DUers post a question on there please share it here and let's get Digging.

2. Our Digital rights and freedoms are very important
“Lawrence Lessig and Robert W. McChesney argue that net neutrality ensures that the Internet remains a free and open technology, fostering, amongst others, democratic communication.”

When you found out that Senator McCain, a man who barely knows how to use email, named his anti net neutrality bill the "Internet Freedom Act," did you get the urge to bitchslap him?


:rofl:

With the undeniable power of the media (I'm specifically referencing 24-hour news networks) to sway public opinion, does the FCC have any power to make sure the information is factual and to what extent can it enforce such a law? So much of Fox News (among other outlets) is such blatant misinformation that it seems borderline abusive, even considering its First Amendment rights. Do you see Freedom of the Press and Responsibility of the Press as two different animals?
