Commissioner Anna Gomez voted for the review, citing broadcasters’ loss of advertising dollars to digital, upending their business models.

So sick of hearing about this. I wear a daily hat that reports these numbers to execs. Its our own damn fault we broadcasters have less advertising revenue. We squeezed every drop from the cow and in return provided a horrible product to both our end users and the advertisers.

We're foaming at the mouth for any opportunity to cut regulation and oversight. Allowing us to have more stations in a market is not good for anyone.
