Radio and media news. Days after FCC commissioner Robert McDowell announced he was leaving, the chairman Julius Genachowski resigns. Both their resignation announcement speeches, two days apart, in the same building, were nearly identical, and this report compares the audio. We also tune in a report about the Mar 19, 2013 House Judiciary subcommittee meeting about updating the Electronic Communications Privacy Act of 1986 (ECPA). Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-Texas), heard here interviewing a Google spokesperson, does not seem to understand how Google uses keyword searches, without retaining email data, to match ads to likely customers. The Google representative explains four different ways, to no avail. This report tunes in the exchange. Also, excerpts from the House Science, Space, and Technology Committee today held a hearing titled, "Threats from Space: A Review of U.S. Government Efforts to Track and Mitigate Asteroids and Meteors." Plus, Rush Limbaugh reviews the new Beyonce single.
