FCC Misses Advisory Committee Deadline on Public Interest Obligation Matters

FCC MISSES ADVISORY COMMITTEE DEADLINE ON PUBLIC INTEREST OBLIGATION MATTERS
[SOURCE: The Campaign Legal Center, AUTHOR: Meredith McGehee]
Six months ago, the Federal Communications Commission's own Consumer Advisory Committee asked the Commission to define the public interest obligations of digital television broadcasters by May 18. The date has passed without any action. CLC Policy Director Meredith McGehee sent a letter to FCC Chairman Kevin Martin calling on him and the rest of the Commission to define public interest obligations for digital broadcasters.
