Sample Web Journal Article Citation [7th Ed. 17.2.7] &
Annotation
Common Cause. “The Fallout from the Telecommunications Act of 1996: Unintended Consequences and Lessons Learned.” ECommon Cause Online. http://www.commoncause.org/atf/cf%7BFB3C17E2-CDD1-4DF6-92BE -BD4429893665%7D/FALLOUT_FROM_THE_TELECOMM_ACT_5-9-05.PDF [accessed March 30, 2006].
Outlines the adverse effects of the Telecommunications Act of 1996. Describes how the Act prompted a wave of media mergers, reducing the number of diverse voices in radio and television and the amount of minority-owned and locally-owned radio stations. Attempts to educate the public about the effects of deregulation and to influence lawmakers to revisit telecommunications policy. Though biased toward responsible governmental regulation, Common Cause presents a well-researched argument for change.
