MRC-TV Alert: Motley On Glenn Beck Program Discussing FCC Diversity Czar

Media Research Center Director of Communications and NewsBusters contributor Seton Motley is scheduled to appear on today's Glenn Beck program on Fox News Channel.

His segment should air around 5:45 p.m. EDT.

Motley will discuss the views of FCC's new "chief diversity officer" Mark Lloyd and how his influence on regulatory policy could prove detrimental to free speech on America's radio airwaves.

As Motley noted recently, these are some statist policy initiatives Lloyd endorsed when he was a senior fellow at the liberal Center for American Progress:

• Restore local and national caps on the ownership of commercial radio stations.
• Ensure greater local accountability over radio licensing.
• Require commercial owners who fail to abide by enforceable public interest obligations to pay a fee to support public broadcasting.
