Subject: [ NNSquad ] Hollywood's take on FCC and Net Neutrality


Here's an interesting take on today's FCC actions from The Hollywood
Reporter:

Of particular note may be Dan Glickman's (MPAA) stance, which
concentrates -- not a big surprise -- on the intellectual property
aspects of the situation.

By the way, Glickman is stepping down as MPAA chief:

Finally, one other tidbit in the Hollywood Reporter story
that caught my eye:

  "Also on Thursday, Genachowski [FCC Chairman] named 2006 "Survivor"
   winner Yul Kwon to the post of deputy chief of the FCC's Consumer  
and
   Governmental Affairs Bureau."

As Spock would say, "Fascinating."
