FCC Media Ownership Rules

The FCC Media Ownership Rules are regulations set by the Federal Communications Commission aimed at promoting diversity and competition in the media landscape. These rules limit how many media outlets a single company can own in a specific market, such as radio, television, and newspapers. The intention is to prevent too much control over information and viewpoints by one entity, ensuring that different perspectives are available to the public. The rules are designed to foster a vibrant media environment that supports democracy and informed citizenship.
