Why Were These Protesters Kicked Out Of An FCC Meeting?

Three protesters at today’s FCC meeting are escorted out of the meeting by guards, as Chairman Tom Wheeler calls for order.

“The purpose of what we’re doing here today on the open Internet is to make sure that we hear from everyone and that we start a process that fully opens the doors for comment by the American people,” Wheeler said after the protestors left. “We’re going to move through that process today, and disruption doesn’t help getting to the point where the American people can provide input into the process.”
