Greta Van Interviews FCC Commissioner Ajit Pai - " Government Doesn't Have a Place in the Newsroom ":

Published on Feb 20, 2014



2-20-14 - (Fox News) - FCC Commissioner Ajit Pai brought people's attention to a planned FCC study to study U.S. newsrooms and warned about its First Amendment implications. Pai joined Greta Van Susteren on Thursday to speak out further, saying there is a danger in giving the government oversight of a free press. It's not the FCC directly conducting the study, it's an outside contractor, but these researchers will be going, at the behest of the regulatory agency, into newsrooms to "figure out why they cover the stories that they do," Pai explained, and he said he went public because he was "concerned about what this implicated for our First Amendment values." Pai told Van Susteren that the questions about "news philosophy and editorial judgment" will be taken out, as per new statements today by the head of the FCC, but even with that, Van Susteren said, "You'd have to be out of your mind to have proposed this in the first place." Pai agreed that "government doesn't have a place in the newsroom," and while the FCC has an authority to report on "barriers" to news access, he argued that thanks to the "unparalleled amount of choice" people have for media consumption, there are fewer barriers to media access than ever.



Glenn Beck Blasts Obama's Media Takeover (Video):

Glenn Beck Blasts Obama's Media Takeover (Video) In the video below Glenn Beck makes an impassioned statement about the new FCC plan to "monitor" newsrooms across America with the intention of intimidating the media into reporting what the administration wants reported and hiding what it doesn't want made public.
Beck is not the one who originally suggests stations will be intimidated by government agents being placed into the newsrooms, no that came from acting FCC commissioner Ajit Pai, who took to the Wall Street Journal op-ed pages to rip the lid off of Obama's attempt to create a state run media propaganda machine out of all newsrooms and local stations.

Via Ajit Pai: But everyone should agree on this: The government has no place pressuring media organizations into covering certain stories. Unfortunately, the Federal Communications Commission, where I am a commissioner, does not agree. Last May the FCC proposed an initiative to thrust the federal government into newsrooms across the country. With its "Multi-Market Study of Critical Information Needs," or CIN, the agency plans to send researchers to grill reporters, editors and station owners about how they decide which stories to run. A field test in Columbia, S.C., is scheduled to begin this spring.
