Today's Dailey Digest, several stations fined for not having the stupid issues lists in their public files--and more to the point, not lying about it to the FCC at renewal time.
Honesty never buys you anything in Sodom and Gomorrah on the Potomac.
One of the stations fined $10,000 is WCHC, a 100 watt station licensed to Holy Cross College in Worchester. Buddy to one of the Commissioners must want the station out of the way! Probably so some Bible-thumper can expand.
Unless these folks get mad & call in whatever markers they have with the politico's (a Catholic College in Masschusetts surely must have some powerful friends); we will see another independent media outlet going away. I rather doubt that we will see $10,000 be paid to keep a college station alive.
