From MoveOn.org:

On June 2, the Federal Communications Commission intends to lift restrictions on media ownership that could allow your local newspaper, cable provider, radio stations, and TV channels all to be owned by one company. The result could be the disappearance of the checks and balances provided by a competitive media marketplace — and huge cutbacks in local news and reporting. Good, balanced information is the basis for our democracy. That’s why we’re asking that: “Congress and the FCC should stop media deregulation and work to make the media diverse, competitive, balanced, and fair.”

Register your thoughts here. (Here are mine: Increasing the concentration of media is bad for the democracy the the Congress and FCC are supposed to be safeguarding.)
