FCC News Conference on Cable Box Purchases

 
Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Chair Tom Wheeler met with reporters following a meeting in which commissioners voted 3-2 in favor of allowing consumers to buy cable set-top boxes instead of renting them from cable companies. Chair Wheeler talked about what the change will mean for consumers. He was followed by FCC Media Bureau Chief William Lake, who answered questions on how the proposal would be implemented. Afterward, the two Republican FCC commissioners talked about why they oppose the measure.
