Senator Stevens of Alaska held a hearing today about Internet network neutrality evidentally gave the idea a “lukewarm” reception. Is it any wonder? Looking at who was present at the meeting, there is already a clear bias towards the interest of telecommunications corporations. Here’s the witness list:
Mr. Aryeh B. Bourkoff 
Managing Director, Media – Cable & Satellite, Entertainment Equity & Fixed Income, UBS Investment ResearchMr. Kevin M. Moore 
Wireline Telecom Analyst, Managing Director, Wachovia SecuritiesMr. Craig E. Moffett 
Vice President and Senior Analyst, U.S. Cable and Satellite, BroadcastingMr. Luke T. Szymczak 
Vice President, JP Morgan Asset Managemen
Take a look at the video archive, but do it before the telecos charge the government more money to stream it! I won’t get into the reasons why net neutrality is a good thing at the moment, but this is certainly an issue to watch.
