Re: [AsburyPark] Re: Clear Channel Bruce Springsteen's Latest
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. --- 2fine4u [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: See what I mean?

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. http://tinyurl.com/37k8cn On Nov 1, 2007, at 10:35 AM, 2fine4u wrote: See what I mean?
