The FCC is holding a major public meeting in Seattle on Friday that will help determine the future of media ownership in the United States. Current FCC rules govern how many media outlets a single company can control – but some media companies would like to see those rules relaxed. Others – like publisher Frank Blethen's Seattle Times – say relaxing the rules would limit diversity and undermine localism. Today on Weekday we talk to Frank Blethen; FCC commissioner Jonathan Adelstein and other guests. Call in and share your views on the media and consolidation.
