Who Owns the Airwaves?

Curious about who owns your local media, telephone and cable company? The Center for Public Integrity has created a searchable database that contains basic information on every radio and television station in America as well as every cable television system and telephone company. You can search by company, by call sign or by area. Searchers will find basic information on some of the most important telecommunication companies, including a brief corporate profile and basic financial information. This dataset also includes all industry sponsored trips by FCC officials between May 1995 and March 2003 (including $84,921 in trips by FCC Chairman Michael Powell to places such as Las Vegas, New Orleans, Honolulu and London).
