Sens. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., and Maria Cantwell, D-Wash., urged the FCC not to weaken its rules on cross-ownership of newspapers, television and radio stations in the same media markets, in a news conference Thursday. They said they oppose any rule change that would discourage diversity in media ownership, limit public access to unbiased information and impact local news coverage and competition, according to a news release.
