WHAT: FSF Seminar - A New FCC or the Same Old, Same Old?
WHERE: The National Press Club, Washington, DC WHEN: Thursday, October 24, 2013, 12:00 p.m. - 2:15 p.m.
The Free State Foundation will hold a lunch seminar titled, "A New FCC or the Same Old, Same Old?" on Thursday, October 24, 2013, at the National Press Club.
With Tom Wheeler and Michael O'Rielly likely to arrive shortly as the new FCC Chairman and Commissioner, the FCC will be back to its full five-member complement. With a newly reconstituted FCC in place, and with ongoing dramatic changes in the communications and Internet marketplace occurring almost daily, this program will explore questions such as: Should we expect to see long-overdue institutional reforms at the FCC? What specifically should be done, if anything, to reorient the agency consistent with the dramatic marketplace and technological changes? What reforms can be implemented without congressional action? If congressional action is needed, are there measures short of a comprehensive overhaul of the Communications Act that should be enacted more quickly?
THE SPEAKERS:
James Assey, Executive Vice President, National Cable & Telecommunications Association
William Kovacic, former Chairman, Federal Trade Commission, and Professor of Law, George Washington University Law School
Robert Quinn, Senior Vice President - Federal Regulatory and Chief Privacy Officer, AT&T James Speta, Professor of Law, Northwestern University Law School
Randolph May, President, The Free State Foundation (Moderator)
