FEC Rules for Daily Kos: Blogs Exempt From Regulation - TalkLeft: The Politics Of Crime

FEC Rules for Daily Kos: Blogs Exempt From Regulation - TalkLeft: The Politics Of Crime:

"The Federal Election Commission announced today that it has unanimously
resolved two complaints alleging that Internet blog activity is subject to
Commission regulation, finding that the activity is exempt from regulation under
the media or volunteer exemption."


I think that this is going to make the internet and blogs a hugely powerful force in elections in the future. It also means that campaigns and their allies are going to be pumping a lot of money into blogs and hiring bloggers - take me, I'll work. This is good for the discussion on the internet, it is too soon to know if it will be good for the country.
