Eric Holder is the US atty General. I'm not sure how effective his office is but he is a good democrat. The ACLU is also big on freedom on the press.
The Koch brothers are two very rich and power corporate owners who's names keep coming up. My understanding, (not ready for press confirmation- a mix of sources good and wing nut) is they are sons of John Birch Society and Lenin best friend lineage??? OK. the John Birch seems solid . They own big shares of AT&T, GE, Verizon and I''m not sure what else. Major contributors to the Tea Party including Gov Walker, Maine's Gov, Michelle Bachman, and other Tea Party, anti union, anti health care Favorites. Again I'm just hearing names over and over and not vouching for the facts but believe there's a basis for the stories.

Yeah, it does - which is why you want to be involved in making the law in
the first place, rather than fighting it after the fact.
I don't have quite the same frame of reference for this as you do in the US
-- I'm from Canada. Here the mainstream press is already controlled by the
large corporations, who in turn control the politicians, so we've learned to
do a lot of watchdogging and lobbying in self-defence -- and to never
believe anything we read or see without questioning its values and
antecedents.
Anytime someone puts forward a new law here, we jump on it and question
whether it's actually covering all the bases or not. The fact of another
law isn't the problem: the problem is always in the implementation and
interpretation after implementing. Another law is inevitable given an
evolving civilization -- and a nation that does not evolve will die or
surrender.
Who is Holder and who are the Kock brothers?

As a former press photographer this smacks of corporate control of media to
me. I seriously doubt they could pull this in NE. I don't know who your atty
General is but Martha Coakly would love this on her desk. Has anyone taken
this to Holder. This cannot be legal! Is this anoither Kock brother
operation?

Well, yeah. Except that the chances of either of the parties always doing
the right things on their own is slim to none -- although there now are a
larger number of corporations who do try - so therefore we often need to
draw the lines of acceptable practice with laws.
