Honig Wants FCC to Delay Ownership Decision
2-24-2013
Minority Media and Telecommunications Council President David Honig told TVNewsCheck he's planning to formally ask the FCC to hold off on a vote on its media ownership review proposals for at least a couple of months, while an MMTC-sponsored study looks into what impact FCC crossownership rules have on minority ownership. BIA Kelsey is conducting the study for the MMTC.
TVNewsCheck writes, "As part of the FCC’s media ownership rule review, FCC Chairman Julius Genachowski has proposed to create a presumption in favor of a TV-newspaper merger in the top 20 markets, but only if there would be eight major media outlets remaining, and the deal did not involve a station that ranks among the top four in the ratings. There would be a presumption against TV-newspaper mergers that didn’t meet those criteria. The crossownership prohibitions generally bar common ownership of a daily newspaper and a TV or radio station in the same market. Also under the Genachowski proposal, the bar on radio-newspaper crossownership would be axed."
