Last week, California Senator Barbara Boxer released a draft of a study by the Federal Communications Commission, showing that media consolidation leads to less local TV news coverage. Adam Candeub, a former lawyer with the FCC said FCC managers ordered the destruction of that report. Boxer’s office released a second study earlier this week on the radio industry which was also apparently shelved. Former FCC Chairman, Republican Michael Powell, under whom the studies were conducted, says he knew nothing about them. Boxer has asked the current FCC chairman, Kevin Martin, to conduct a formal investigation.
