Democrat Susan Ness, the most senior member of the Federal Communications Commission won't seek a second term at the agency. With Ms. Ness' planned departure, President George W. Bush must recruit three new nominees to an agency responsible for regulating key new economy technologies like wireless devices, cable and telephone networks, as well as broadcasting. Only three members of the commission can be of the same party, which means that President Bush must now find a Democrat and two Republicans. Ms. Ness has been active in policies affecting the transition to digital television, children's television, international negotiations over spectrum management and other issues.
