105. He could have pushed for cable regulation too
Edited on Thu Dec-29-05 10:07 PM by depakid
As it was- the telecommunication bill claimed to lower cable rates. LOL. I saw right throught that at the time and told the then Mrs. Depa that Clinton was full of it, and to expect out cable bill to rise- and it did- by 25%.

But, you're correct. Fox couldn't have been subjected to a fainess doctrine type thing by FCC regulation. It would have taken a clause in the Telecommunication bill that modified the 1984 Cable Act.

My mistake. Thanks for the correction.
