Update: FCC Snafu Leads To Erroneous Application Dismissal

In the Eugene-Springfield, Ore., market, is a religious entity named Crossfire World Outreach Ministries. Its offerings include “Crossfire TV,” and at present it has ties to a FCC licensee that’s the parent of a low-power TV station in the Oregon locale.


A proposed sale had been submitted to the FCC for its approval. However, the Commission has just dismissed the application.

On Friday, the deal’s status changed to “pending.”
