FCC REJECTS KLRT CHALLENGE
[SOURCE: Broadcasting&Cable, AUTHOR: John Eggerton]
The Federal Communications Commission Thursday denied a petition opposing the license renewal of KLRT-TV, a Clear Channel Communications-owned Fox affiliate in Little Rock. A Little Rock viewer cited the station's airing of the Billboard Awards broadcasts, profanities from which had been found indecent by the commission, as well as pending complaints against That 70s Show. In denying to designate the license for hearing before an FCC judge, the commission also dismissed the viewer's complaint about alleged reporting lapses concerning its public file.
