Re: Good
For Martin to make a la carte work he needs to get control over the big Hollywood studios that provide most of the networks on cable.

quote:
Martin is looking to expand that power to include independent networks for the first time. If that happens, “he may bring Hollywood under FCC regulation under the unbundling rules. That would be a very dubious achievement,” said James Gattuso, senior research fellow in regulatory policy at the Heritage Foundation.
And to do that he has a BIG problem. The Democrats depend on Hollywood big time for political contributions. I doubt the 2 Dems on the FCC will go along with Martin on this issue like they have on other anti-cable efforts. And Martin has no support from the 2 other Repubs on the FCC for any more regulation.
