Dodd Speaks Out on Media Reform

While no questions about Big Media made it onto the air in Monday’s CNN/YouTube Democratic Presidential Debate, the great videos created by media reformers are still generating a response.

Not long after the debate, Sen. Christopher Dodd (D-Conn.) responded to Alan Lastufka's video, titled "What will YOU do to protect independent voices in the media?"

Dodd pledged that if elected president he will have his antitrust division look "very carefully" at media consolidation in major media markets. He also promises to “make sure Net Neutrality is there" and emphasizes the importance of broadband access for all.

Be sure to check out both videos. As more candidates weigh in on these crucial issues, I’ll be sure to highlight their activities here.
