In another ruling Monday, the Supreme Court upheld a lower court ruling that limits the number of television stations, radio stations and newspapers a media company can own in a single market. The decision marks a major defeat for the nation’s major media corporations. Pete Tridish of the Prometheus Radio Project said, “The Supreme Court is affirming the demands of millions of people in the United States: the FCC needs to take a close look at its rules about media ownership and the assumptions guiding these rules.” The Prometheus Radio Project was the lead petitioner in the case against the Federal Communications Commission. FCC Commissioner Jonathan Adelstein added, “This decision is a rare victory for the public over some of the most powerful corporations in America.” He went on to say “The court’s decision puts the issue of media consolidation right back in the FCC’s hands and gives us an opportunity for a fresh start, so we better get it right this time.”
