Are They Nationalizing the Internet?

The FCC Is Doing the Job It Was Made To DoBy Mike Mallowe

There’s a juicy rumor mak-ing its way around the conspira-cy blogs and the deep Internet, as well as some right-wing politi-cal circles, that the recent action by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to do every-thing in its power to guarantee “net neutrality” is an attempt by the US government to “national-ize” the Internet.

First things first: “Net Neu-trality” means that big media companies, big cable compa-nies, big phone companies, and anything else that’s big in the communications industry, will

not be allowed to create sepa-rate and unequal Internets for their highest paying customers.

What that would mean in practice, with no net neutrality, is that your friendly, neighbor-hood cable and Internet provider would be able to detour you and I to a sloooooow Internet.

There we would wait as long as we had to, while the big pay-ers would have super-quick ac-cess to the Internet on special-ly designed speed routes that could only be accessed for the right price.

Internet 3.0If you think your Internet

connection is slow now, just wait until that kind of multi-tiered In-ternet takes effect, if it ever does.

The FCC is demanding that it be recognized as the ultimate

authority in maintaining this free access.

Big media corporations are arguing just the opposite – the FCC is too stupid, too politicized and too traditional to be allowed to step in like the honest cop that the FCC has always strived to be.

So far, Congress has wisely backed away from hindering the FCC in its crusade for net neu-trality.

But, of course, that could change.

The first calls that usually get answered in Congress are the ones from the lobby groups that represent the big industry organizations.

The danger here is palpable because the Internet, if nothing else, is ever changing. It is well on its way to taking over TV, as we know it, by streaming servic-es.

We all know what the In-ternet has done to print and the print version of advertising. Ditto for marketing.

But, what comes next may be even more shocking.

We do our shopping on the Internet now, but sooner than we think, we might also be able to experience the actual “in store” experience through the Internet.

How could that work? Just cross-breed artificial

intelligence with advanced 3-D printers and nearly instanta-neous drone delivery and sud-denly you have the store and all its products, textures and scents right there in your family room.

Who Wins the Net Neutrality War?I wish I had a marker in my

hand and a big white board to stand up and break this theo-ry down, piece-by-piece, but I’ll use this column as the next best thing.

The FCC is not some intru-sive Big Brother, like the NSA, for example, or Homeland Secu-rity. The FCC evolved from the

FRC, or Federal Radio Commis-sion, back in 1934 when owning a radio was less common that driving an automobile.

Both Commissions came into existence to guarantee, as much as possible, open access to public airways, either radio or television.

That open access was meant to be equal, but not unrestricted. The government and the military took the bands they needed for national security

and what we used to think of as Civil Defense, or Emergency Management, and made everything else available to the public.

For the FCC to move into the Internet era is entirely natural, legal and backed up by decades of precedent.

Congress empowered the FCC “to regulate interstate communications by radio, televi-sion, wire, satellite, and cable in all 50 states, the District of Columbia and U.S. territories.”

By stepping up to try to make the Internet a fair and equitable experience for custom-ers like you and I, the FCC is simply doing its job, as its creators imagined.

As it is currently constituted, the FCC is composed of five members, three Democrats and two Republicans. The President appoints them, so the balance is always adjusted depending on who wins the White House.

Congress has maintained the FCC status quo for a little over 80 years because it works. But, what Congress gives, it can also take away.There’s a really chilling post-script to all this. The last person who boldly attacked one of the ruling business elites in this country

was John F. Kennedy. He was also a major fan of the FCC and kept trying to give it even more teeth.

In early 1963 he proposed ending a huge tax break for the oil industry known as “the oil depletion allowance.” He urged Congress to end these special subsidies and the oil industry’s voodoo book-keeping.

The guys on the other side went ballistic, as we used to say, and openly accused Kennedy of trying to “nationalize” the oil industry. Sound familiar?

That November, at the very height of these political oil wars, Kennedy, at the urging of his Vice President, Lyndon Johnson, made a campaign swing through Dallas, Texas. And, we all know what happened next.

Publisher Joe Ball’s comment:I have been writing my “Per-

sonal Thoughts”” column in ACT for many years.

Frankly, I thought I would be receiving some negative com-ments on the subject of Mentors.

The column could be inter-preted as alternative to college.

Instead, positive responses, such as the following, have sur-prisingly been sent.

This is so beautifully written, so timely and so appreciated. Thanks and have a happy holi-day season!

Letter to the Editor

Just opened the mail and immediately read this month’s ACT. The paper continues to

present timely info, not likely easily available on other sites.

And loads of advertising!But, your feature this month

concerning mentors was particu-larly powerful, moving, wonderful and timely.

You hit all the correct points concerning the costs/benefits of “higher learning”, assiduous work ethics, and the need for mentors.

I appreciate your youth-ful acceptance and gratitude for your mentors; including your Dad and Father-in-law, and I have,too, learned the same lessons.

And I am so proud to be a mentor myself; having learned the some of the same life’s les-son from you, passed on from your mentors.

Joe,

That is you in my opening comment “The Idea Business. That’s a business you want to be in as a board member” of my January newsletter.

What a pleasure to cite your wisdom again.

My remembrance of your keen career advice fits in well with the spirit of your column in the Dec/Jan issue of ACT about the influencers in your life.

New Southern Cross Kitchen Offers Southern Comfort Food By: Bonnie Squires

Southern Cross Kitchen, 8 East 1st Avenue, in Conshohock-en, one of a trio of restaurants owned by Marianne Gere and Kim Stengari, sits just across the bridge from its West Con-shohocken “sisters,” Stella Blu and Gypsy Saloon.

Calling themselves “Conshy Girls,” Gere and Stengari have created comfort food in a casu-al atmosphere there, with a bar downstairs and a bar upstairs.

Millenials are very fond of the bar situation, and the night we were there one of the com-panies which populate the office buildings just across the way had booked a Happy Hour upstairs, featuring the restaurant’s short rib nachos and chicken wings.

A cameraman from 6abc’s “FYI” show also showed up to finish taping a segment for an upcoming Saturday night restau-rant TV show.

Other diners in the two din-ing areas, on the ground floor and upstairs, while busy with their meals, were also enjoying the mix of recorded music.

Gere told us that patrons enjoy the live bands which per-

form Thursday, Friday and Sat-urday nights. Wednesdays are Open Mike night.

The Sunday Jazz Brunch is also a big attraction.

Let’s take a look at the menu. If you are not familiar with Southern comfort food, which we

were not, there are a lot of inter-esting, new ideas.

The fried green tomatoes ($10), besides reminding us of the fabulous movie, brims over with roasted goat cheese.

The fried pickles ($8) were unusual. My guest went to town

on the fried oysters ($12) and the fried calamari ($10).

Virginia Weniger, who has been with the Conshy Girls for many years, trains the new wait-staff and fills in as hostess or whatever needs to be done.

She is like a floor show with her witty comments and atten-tion to the patrons.

We managed to find room for a caesar salad with cornbread croutons ($8), a sweet change from the usual croutons, before we tackled our main courses. My other friend selected the braised short ribs ($24) over a bed of grits. I found the grilled salm-on ($25) to be extremely tender and cooked just right, on a bed of

scalloped potatoes. The homemade desserts at

$8 were all tempting, but we set-tled on the Hummingbird Cake, a southern confection of pineap-ple and bananas, and the grand winner, the fabulous chocolate peanut butter cake. The vanil-la ice cream ($4) came with a fudgy Hershey chocolate sauce. And we each took home a dog-gie-bag with main courses and even the ice cream, enough for a delicious repeat the next night at home.

Conshy Girls also offer a full catering menu.

Check them out at www.Con-shyGirls.com, or call 484-344-5668.

Joe Ball

by Joe Ball

In my formative years working at The Philadelphia In-quirer City Desk (from the ages of 17 to 25) I learned … I learned!

And one of the actualities I learned was:“There’s a story in everybody.”For quite a while, my sisters have been asking me to

write a column about them …I have three sisters.And it will please them for me to quickly note: All three

are younger than me. Actual ages off the record.So, here goes … Quickee stories about sisters Barbara,

Dana & Jayne.They have all been married, have children and grand-

children.They use for their last names, as per custom, their

husband’s last name (Dana & Barbara are widows; Jayne is divorced).

But all three are known among their contemporaries as “The Ball Sisters”.

TRAGIC QUICKLY STRIKES TWICE Barbara & Dana became widows about two years

ago via unusual circumstances.Barbara’s life-time husband, Gary, & Dana’s equally

life-time husband , Sandy, died just several days apart.At the time, both were in Cooper Hospital, Camden, NJ.At the time, both were in the same Intensive Care

Unit, (with different problems).At the time, both were in beds close to each other.

And repeating they died almost at the same time!Unusual … Awful . Sad.The positive, however, is that their lifetime marriages

were (if you ask my sisters) happy.

FIREJayne? She has always been a maverick. She is an

independent individualist with an outward-personality My favorite story about Jayne occurred in our grow-

ing up days.We all lived at 6429 N. Park Ave., East Oak Lane, Phila. At the time of this story, Jayne who is 16 years younger

than me, was about six years old; I was about 22 years old.I was working at the Inquirer’s City Desk seated by

the fire department alarm radio, 4th Floor, 400 N. Broad St. I was to take down the radio dispatchers info, and get it to a district reporter on the street.

A “local” came in. A “local” usually was a smaller fire, a “box” was usually more serious.

This was a local, and the dispatcher said on the radio the fire was at 6429 N. Park Ave., East Oak Lane.

That was my address! The fire was in my home!My first move was to call home. (I was still living there).My mom answered.She told me, family baby, Jayne was experimenting

with matches in the back shed, attached to the kitchen.She set a fire. Accidently (of course).But all ok.The assistant City Editor, Joe VanHart allowed me to

write the story.

Over the years, I have forgotten my lead. But it basically reported that a six-year-old saved her family and home. The child (my sister) discovered a blaze and quickly told her mom. There was time to put it out be-fore damage or injuries.

In short, the story made her a hero.

JOB SECURITY Shortly after I went into business for myself, sister

Dana worked for me as a secretary for several years, when I was still sort-of-new in a business of my own.

Her skills of typing …. she thought … were below par (I don’t remember – conveniently – any problems.)

But she thought I was going to fire her.I remember she said to me:“If you fire me, I’m going to tell mama”.I never fired her!Upon getting married and becoming a mother, she...

retired.**********

As to sister Barbara.She went for her first job interview right after graduat-

ing from Olney High School.The interview/job was on Vine Street. At the time not

a nice neighborhood.I was concerned. So I accompanied her – to check

out the employer.Can you imagine his thoughts about being inter-

viewed by the applicant’s brother? Anyway, he hired her. He hired her!

Chuck BednarikFootball – & Barter! – Leader

Publisher’s Note: This is a per-sonal experience memory of an advertising-related contact with recently deceased Eagles Leg-end Chuck Bednarik.

***As owner of a small adver-

tising agency in the early 1960’s one of my clients was Cherry-Levis, manufacturers of the spicy “Slim Jim” meat sticks.

I suggested to owner Al Levis, now also deceased, that he use Chuck Bednarik in his marketing.

He agreed – on the basis that Mr. Bednarik would be paid with company products.

The arrangement was he would receive all the products he could carry on one trip out of the warehouse.

Mr. Bednarik agreed.In my mind/memory I can

still see him leaving the ware-house with huge cartons of Slim Jim’s on each shoulder and plac-ing them in the trunk of his car.
