FCC Chairman Kevin Martin will spend another five years behind the bars of the Federal Communications Commission, which is controlled by Republicans at this time and which is also deadlocked on the current AT&T-Bellsouth $67 billion merger under Martin's guidance.
Will Martin, who was appointed by President Bush, help
shape the future of American telecommunications in the next five years? Sure he will -- as the FCC is seeing a radical transformation of television, telephone, entertainment and broadband Internet services combine in an electronic alphabet soup that the FCC must keep on top of. Interesting times ahead!
