FCC Renews WUPL TV License

Viacom, a company suing the FCC over its children's television rules, has won a license renewal for a TV station it owns in Slidell (LA) which has a history of not airing the minimum three hours of kids shows per week. (Hmmm.) The station will be fined $4,000, however, for not filing the proper paperwork when it has aired children's programming. (Hmmm. And why would you go to court to overturn such stringent rules? Oh, yes, of course, principle.)
