Chairman Genachowski apparently isn't going anywhere

According to the Hollywood reporter, an FCC advisor has debunked all rumors that the Chairman is about to vacate his position for a spot in the Obama cabinet as Secretary of Commerce.

"Chairman Genachowski is very happy at the FCC and is focused on harnessing the opportunities of the communications and technology space," said Josh Gottheimer, senior counselor to Genachowski. The Chairman has faced scathing criticism by both Democrats and Republicans as well as various industry groups relating to recent matters including spectrum reclamation, net neutrality and the Comcast-NBC merger. The chairman has been a close friend of President Barack Obama since they were both in law school.
