Comment Big Media makes Bad Law (Score 1) 157
The Trouble with laws / treaties made by Big Media is exactly the same trouble as laws made by Big Corporations: perspective.
Both groups fail to see beyond their legislative goals and this results in laws that impact far more than the areas they intend.
Laws ought to be studied and debated by the public and all of the consequences understood and taken into consideration in the law or treaty.
Otherwise the collateral damage will outweigh the gains sought by the special interests involved.
Ultimately special interests and Corporations care only about their agendas and profits and not about the impact to society they have.
Only Congress should be allowed to make laws and treaties like this and only when circumstance or the people require it.
