Drew Clark: Mind the Minders

Who is watching the FCC? Drew Clark of the Center for Public Integrity is visiting us today at the Berkman Center for our lunch series and other conversations. He’s showing off MediaTracker, a very cool application that gives a detailed description of which companies control media distribution by zip code and who from those companies have given campaign cash to whom. He’s also got a terrific initiative branching toward broadband information. As Doc notes, Drew’s work links in obvious fashion to Lawrence Lessig‘s next 10 years of work on corruption. Glad to know these guys, among other good people (like our friends at the Sunlight Foundation) are on the case.
