In response to "The FCC wants to regulate newsrooms to "ask questions about story bias" and "how the decisions about which stories are covered are made" -- (link)" by spamlet

Sounds more like the FCC wants to see how things happen within the newsrooms

There are lots of ways that info could be used.

At the least, it could help the FCC see if consolidated ownership has resulted in underserving a market.

If this info allows the FCC to create ownership rules that prevent one parent company from nearly monopolizing an area's news providers, that's a good thing.
