FTC Seeks Public Comments on the Future of the News Media in the Internet Age
Comments Due Nov 6, 2009 . To file comments
The Federal Trade Commission is seeking public comments in advance of upcoming workshops that will explore the Internet's impact on the news media, including the new avenues for innovation and the financial challenges that it has created for the industry. The workshops on Dec. 1-2, 2009 will consider a wide range of issues, such as Internet-related changes in advertising and the way people receive news, ideas for reducing costs and restructuring news organizations, potential for-profit and non-profit models for journalism, and the evolving competition among news organizations.
In a notice to be published in the Federal Register, the FTC is asking for input on a series of questions to be addressed in the workshops, including:
- Should the federal government provide additional funding for news organizations?
The Commission will consider comments received by November 6, 2009, in preparing for the workshops; later comments will be accepted as well.
Participants in the FTC workshops will include journalists, editors, owners, and other representatives of news organizations, online advertisers, new media representatives (such as bloggers and local news Web sites), consumer advocates, academics, economists, and government officials. The FTC will post an agenda for the workshops at a later time.
The workshops will be held from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. each day at the FTC's satellite building conference center, located at 601 New Jersey Avenue, N.W., Washington, DC. All attendees will be required to display a current driver's license or other form of photo identification for entry.
For more information about the workshops, please visit. To file comments, visit. The Commission vote approving the Federal Register notice announcing the workshops and soliciting public comments was 4-0.

"Like the court gazettes in Europe, these papers posed no challenge to authority; they primarily chronicled events across the Atlantic but provided little information about developments at home, much less any critical discussion of politics. Monopoly newspapers had little incentive to do otherwise; in each case, the publisher was either a postmaster or a government printer and therefore dependent on the authorities for his livelihood" [Starr p 56] [See Network Neutrality] |
