FCC Announces First Official Public Hearing
Posted September 11th, 2006 by Jen Howard
After months of silence, the FCC finally announced that it will conduct its first official public hearing on media ownership in Los Angeles on Oct. 3. Six public forums were promised in June when the FCC launched the rulemaking that could change local ownership limits.
This announcement comes just days before FCC Chairman Kevin Martin’s scheduled testimony at his confirmation hearing before the Senate Commerce Committee.
Martin has promised to “hold public hearings in diverse locations around the country to fully involve the American people” in the FCC’s review of media ownership rules.
