Let's face it the country is runing low on money so
they sell licenses. There have been a couple of cases
recently where a group of citizens had hired a lawyer
and petitioned the FCC to block license renewal based
on the fact that the station in their area wasn't
serving the public. Since the FCC does not, well isn't
supposed to, concern itself with content teh licenses
were renewed.

To comment on why Clear Channel plays old music rather
than music by old people. If the music you play is
older than 25 years old you don't have to pay music
licensing fees. If they were inclined to play music by
old people they would have pay for it.

More than half of Americans surveyed said it should be illegal for a

company to own both a newspaper and a television station in the

same market, a coalition of consumer and telecommunications

advocacy groups said on Wednesday.
