The Parents Television Council owns the FCC complaint Dept.
Come to find out the FCC gets 99.8% of their 240,000 complaints from ONE SINGLE group. This group is the Parents Television Council. They are a group Headed by a fellow by the the name of Brent Bozell. Founder and President of the Media Research Center, activist and voice of many RW conservative media outlets. He sometimes sits in for Rush Limbaugh as a guest host.

You can use the Parents Television Council WEB PAGE to FILE YOUR COMPLAINTS against SAVAGE and the LIKE.

It looks like they have set up an easy to use form for us all to use to bitch and complain to the FCC (Mr Powell)

They set it up for US TO USE to complain to the FCC. Why leave a good thing alone?

Why let the RW fanatics file 99.8% of the 240,000 complaints. Lets help them out.

File as many as you want against broadcasts the RW media has assaulted you with. They set a new standard so that certain words could not be played, and Private Ryan could not be played on a number of stations.

It apparently works. I used it to complain about the Lies on FOX on a particular issue. But I think there are other ways to utilize this great tool.

My complaint went on to the FCC without a hitch.

2. I would suggest you use the FCC's website
I would not trust cleanup.tv to pass on the correct info.

The form may look like the wrong one but if you read the FCC site you will see it is correct.
