When I entered the broadcast industry in 1973, the ABC, CBC and NBC broadcast networks shared roughly 90% of all TV viewing. This chart shows all of broadcasting now commanding 23.8% of viewing. Hard to comprehend the industry changes! @eggerton @hajessell pic.twitter.com/2YEwbpJ2jx

“I’ve been trying to keep the ACP conversation slightly separate from USF reform. I’m not against dealing with reform… but I think the two issues, combining them makes it really difficult for Congress to tackle them. And the you get into the issue of challenged constitutionality and the authority issue and whether USF overall can survive the court review… I wouldn’t be surprised to see the FCC do fairly well or reasonably well in the court process, but if one of those courts overturn it, it’s going to be played out for a while. If they overturn the authority, there’ll be an effort within Congress to kind of recapitalize and move forward with USF as it looks today, but I think there’ll be a desire to fix some of the pieces that haven’t been addressed for so long.”
– Former FCC Commissioner Michael O’Rielly speaking at an event hosted by the Georgetown Center for Business and Public Policy on USF Reform
