Our upcoming hearing will spotlight the latest trends in the ways Americans consume media, how that affects business models, market growth, and public policy, and where we go from here. I look forward to hearing from our panel of expert witnesses next week as we examine the 21st century media marketplace," said #SubCommTech Chairman Blackburn.as they are posted.
