Retired FCC Chairman Michael J. Copps has been warning of the dangers of the increasing lack of diversity for years. On Jan. 18, 2011, he was the only one of the five commissioners to vote against the Comcast/NBC Universal deal. “The public interest requires more — much more — than it is receiving,” Copps wrote in his dissenting opinion. “[The deal] opens the door to the cable-ization of the open Internet. The potential for walled gardens, toll booths, content prioritization, access fees to reach end users, and a stake in the heart of independent content production is now very real.”
