[BC] Public File proceeding

[Bailey, Scott]

Do let anyone in DC fool ya, they all know up there damn well NOBODY
looks at any station's public file! It's just a racket to make money
when Congress is on their butt's when the government needs money. It's
done all over the country with city governments. When they need money,
they get on the police chief to have their officers set up the speed
traps and give out as many tickets as possible.
The public file rule is just a way to make money!

I've thought of the Public File rules as something like a small town
speed 
trap - useless except as a source of revenue for the cops, the FCC in
this 
case.

In all of the years WVXU was at Xavier, no one EVER came in to look at
the 
Public File except when we were about to be sold. THAT was a smelly red 
herring to us that something fishy was in the works. Perhaps the Public 
File is something of a radio 'DEW' mechanism!
