In the context of regulatory decisions, the political conflict betweenexecutive and legislative branches has been significant. The relative ideologicalstances and power resources of federal agencies and Congress determines regulationoutcomes. In particular, when agencies earn sufficient political supportfrom policy stakeholders by relying on procedural justice, they are able to securethe regulatory outcomes they desire without congressional intervention. Becauselegislators are highly concerned about their reelection prospects, policy stakeholders’political support is an important power resource for agencies. Legislatorsare likely to embrace regulatory decisions made by agencies supported by policystakeholders even if they disregard congressional preferences. This article providesevidence for this proposition by reviewing media concentration regulationpolicies of the U.S. Federal Communications Commission.
