FCC should preserve accountability journalism, advisor says

Steven Waldman, senior advisor to FCC Chairman Julius Genachowski, says saving journalim “is not our job.” However, “we are looking at it in terms of preserving certain functions, in which I do include accountability journalism.” Waldman is exploring possibilities for a report to the commission on the future of news in an uncertain time, and sat down for a Q&A with Broadcasting & Cable’s John Eggerton.
