Alvaro Bedoya

And so I just...

I just think that as long as we don't pay attention to the bigger structural forces of like every one of these mergers and acquisitions, giving people like Brendan Carr an opportunity to jump in and do this, it's just going to keep on happening.

That's the big thing for me is people need to wake up like,

Rob Bonta, but also we need to go in and repeal the law, the 1996 Telecommunications Act, that lets these companies gobble each other up.

50 years ago, the media ecosystem was much more diverse.

And yeah, you had the big three, but you had all these little stations locally owned.

Now you've got Sinclair Broadcasting literally telling local folks what to say verbatim.

We need to turn back the clock, not just on these specific mergers, but on the law that lets these massive conglomerates get born in the first place outside.

I usually say Alvaro, but honestly, I stopped caring a long time ago.
