I watched it too.  Very nicely done.  I'm not sure that I like the fact that there were no telcos there.
 
I've got mixed emotions about this one.  On the one hand, I don't like government over regulation.  It's true that there isn't a problem today.  It's also true that the telcos aren't to be trusted.
 
I think I lean more to letting the market take care of it's self till we KNOW of a problem or an impending one.
 
Someone else really needs to take the lead on this though.  I fail to see any concrete reasons to be all worked up about anything other than the idea that all should be able to buy anything they can afford. 
 
The argument that some will have faster pipes than others rings hollow to me because the internet is already like that.  The more you pay, the faster you can go.  Gee, what a concept.

Dear Alex,
Bill Moyers

Tonight at 9:
Watch "The Net at Risk"

On the Web:
Join the Debate at PBS.org




Tune in to PBS tonight to see the SavetheInternet.comCoalition featured in "The Net at Risk," a documentary produced by award-winning journalist Bill Moyers.


Then join other SavetheInternet.com members in an online Web discussion at PBS.org.


Bill Moyers' show airs at 9 p.m. in most cities (check local listings). Immediately following the East Coast broadcast, PBS.org will host a live Internet debate between Free Press Policy Director Ben Scott and phone industry flack Mike McCurry.


You can be a part of this online debate. Here's how to join in:


When: Oct. 18, 10:30 pm Eastern / 7:30 pm Pacific
Where: http://www.pbs.org/moyers


You'll be asked to log in to participate in the online discussion. With your help, we hope to light up the PBS Web site with our campaign to save Net Neutrality.


It's important to have you there. In the six months since the SavetheInternet.com Coalition was launched, millions of Americans have joined the campaign, spoken out for Internet freedom, and put Congress and the phone companies on notice.


Tonight's program could make millions more aware of this issue.


They need to hear the real voices of people like you instead of industry mouthpieces. Help us use the Internet to save it from corporate efforts to stifle online innovation, free speech and competition.


Please join us tonight!


Timothy Karr
Campaign Director
