This may soon become a frequent announcement . . . just before your screen goes "black"
on many of your favorite programs usually seen on your favorite channels.
No, it won't really happen tonight ... but it could happen . . . VERY SOON . . UNLESS
you do something about it NOW!
Your freedom to choose the television channel YOU WANT at the hour YOU WANT for
the program YOU WANT may soon not be your right at all. Your choice will be controlled by
the Federal Communications Commission in Washington, D. C.
Under Government regulations now being actively considered by the FCC, you may soon
be denied the freedom to select your family television entertainment at the hour or on the
channel you desire. A Federal agency will tell you WHICH station you can watch, HOW MANY
stations you can watch, and WHICH PROGRAMS you can watch.
In short, the rules proposed by the FCC would give the Federal agency power to regulate
your television reception . . . something previously unheard of in this country ... an idea com
pletely foreign to the American system of free enterprise broadcasting. In effect, the FCC would
severely limit your freedom to select the channel of your choice for your family's television en
tertainment. If you want to protect your rights as an American citizen ... if you want to safeguard
your freedom of choice ... if you oppose unwarranted Government intervention in your fam
ily's TV viewing choice .. .

Members of the Federal Communications Commission are not elected to office. BUT they are answerable to Congress. Write
your Congressman TODAY. Let him know that you are against the FCC's proposed rule which will regulate and limit cable
television reception. Let him know you are against a Federal agency taking upon itself powers not given to it by the Congress
of the United States. Address your letter to:
Hon. Al Ullman
United States House of Representatives
Washington, D. C.
