FCC Shifts On Radio Duplication Rule, Deletes AM and FM Restrictions

0

In 1964, the FCC first adopted rules to restrict the duplication of programming on commonly-owned broadcast radio stations operating in the same geographic area.


The current version of the rule was adopted in 1992.

As of today, the rule’s end is on the way. And Democratic Commissioner Geoffrey Starks isn’t wholly pleased.

Perhaps a late shift to include both AM and FM stations is the reason.
