CNSNews.com –Federal Communications Commissioner (FCC) Michael O'Rielly criticized recent calls from the White House for the commission to begin federal regulation of Internet services.
Appearing at the American Enterprise Institute (AEI) on Wednesday, O'Rielly said that what the White House wants the commission to do is either bad for the economy or contrary to the law.
"The foundation of the U.S. economy is for private companies to offer products and services -- not government-sponsored companies," O'Rielly said.
"Whether federal regulation would be of value, he said, "is something I have to step back from a bit. The question is whether I at the FCC have the authority to overturn… law."
