There were so many bad outcomes of this Act. It led to the corporate dominance that exists over US media today, and that translated to greater censorship, greater homogenization, less local control, and a simplification of American perspectives in general.

Clear Channel could not exist without this Act - that should be enough on its own to condemn it.

The media is trash today because of this law. But the media is owned by those who benefited from it, so you'll never hear about this.
