| 2020-21319 | Amendment of the Commission's Rules Regarding Duplication of Programming on Commonly Owned Radio Stations; Modernization of Media Initiative | Rule | In this document, the Commission eliminates the radio duplication rule, which restricts the duplication of programming on commonly owned stations operating in the same geographic area, for both AM and FM stations to reflect technological and marketplace changes since the current version of the rule was adopted in 1992. This approach will strike an appropriate balance between fostering our public interest goals of promoting competition and diversity and affording broadcast radio licensees greater flexibility to address issues of local concern in a timely fashion, facilitate digital broadcasting by AM stations, and ultimately allow stations to improve service to their communities. | 2020-10-22 | 2020 | 10 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2020/10/22/2020-21319/amendment-of-the-commissions-rules-regarding-duplication-of-programming-on-commonly-owned-radio | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2020-10-22/pdf/2020-21319.pdf | Federal Communications Commission | 161 | In this document, the Commission eliminates the radio duplication rule, which restricts the duplication of programming on commonly owned stations operating in the same geographic area, for both AM and FM stations to reflect technological and... |
