Who says we need media ownership regulation?

A study of Los Angeles television released by Children Now finds that "the amount of kids' television programs in Los Angeles fell sharply when a media company owned more than one of the city's TV stations." Most disturbing is that the stations cut their children's programming to the bare minimum required by the FCC (three hours per week). I guess if you want good children's programming, you'd better watch PBS or Disney.
