Animation Industry 		FCC and McBroadcasting: Take The Road Not Taken
Media consolidation closes some doors while opening others
by Charlie White
The FCC recently relaxed its rules for media ownership, so now huge broadcasting companies can grow even bigger. Where corporate giants were once allowed to own only a handful of TV stations each, now a station group can amass enough local stations to cover 45% of the United States. A company can even own two TV stations in a single market, as long as only one of them is in the top four in ratings. Why should content creators care about this? It's just a bunch of politics, right? Well, it could cost you your job, if it hasn't already.

Plug it in, and you instantly have a huge and fast external hard disk that looks great, too. Mac or PC, FireWire or USB 2.0 -- all are welcome with this jewel of a peripheral.
