Indecent programming

Article Abstract:

FCC is strictly monitoring radio stations for indecent and offensive radio programming within the six to eight in the evening time slot. A new law issued by the FCC in Jan 1993, lengthened the no-indecency policy from six in the evening until midnight. However, in Feb 1993, the Court of Appeals reversed the regulation, retaining the original time slot of the no-indecency policy. The FCC decided toimpose forfeitures ranging from $2,000 to $200,000 on radio stations who continue to violate radio programming regulations.

Article Abstract:

Certain FM applicants are now prevented from filing contingent applications.
