This should prove interesting.

"Democratic Congress To Pressure FCC"

"The Republican-controlled FCC is expected to feel increased pressure from the new Democratic majority in Congress in the near future. According to the Washington Post, numerous Senators are planning to press the Commission on the multiple issues currently facing the FCC, beginning with next week's Senate Commerce, Science and Transportation Committee hearing."

"The Post expects Chairman Kevin Martin to be the focal point of the Democrats' criticisms, especially since he is an ally of the Bush administration. "

Here's the entire article: http://fmqb.com/Article.asp?id=340298

It's safe to say that we saw this confrontation coming in view of the past election.

It's been reported that Chairman Martin has aspirations of becoming governor of his home state. My advice to him would be to not put his chairmanship of the FCC on his resume. His tenure so far has been unremarkable to put it mildly.

Now is a good time for groups like Prometheus Radio Project, Media Access Project and others to put forward their agendas.
