F.C.C. Questioned on Its Far-Reaching Plan to Expand Broadband Access

By MATT RICHTEL and BRIAN STELTER | NY Times | March 16, 2010

[FAC: Dave Burstein of DSLprime is quoted in this piece. It also appears that he may have been misrepresented outside of quote, where the story reads: "He (DB) also asserted that the goal of getting high-speed access to 100 million homes was already within reach. About 50 million homes have access to broadband service of 50 to 100 megabits, and the cable industry says 100 million homes will have such access within five years." Really? ]
