On the recordJune 26, 2000
Now that the gentleman from Florida has gotten me in trouble with my press secretary, I must say that I still think that this is an unfair attack. It is interesting that the gentleman mentions my press secretary, because at this very moment each one of us that has spoken on the floor today has been getting countless phone calls from the media and from the public asking for information as to what we said, what we discussed, why we said it, and what was the issue. The FCC handles as important issues as we do and they get the same information requests, and they get the same desire from the public to know. So what I am saying to my good friend is I know that the gentleman has some problems with the FCC, but he should find another area to attack and not attack the media relations. Because if the gentleman succeeds, I assure my colleague that a year from now he will be back on the floor complaining that he does not get enough information from the FCC.
