Kennard to Leave FCC?
source: NY Post

Federal Communications Commission Chairman Bill Kennard is making plans to leave the agency - and already the jockeying has begun for his job.

Kennard, who was nominated and sworn in by President Clinton in November 1997, will not stay on the job if Vice President Al Gore is elected, say sources with ties to the commission.

"Let's just say he's had a lot of job offers in the past few months," said one FCC insider.

In line for the chairmanship is Commissioner Gloria Tristani, a Democrat who sources say has been promised the top job.
