Comment Date on Status of Home Shopping Television Stations Extended
We recently wrote about the FCC's proceeding to assess the status of stations that are primarily home shopping in nature - to determine if such stations are serving the public interest and are entitled to must carry status on cable systems. The FCC has just issued an Order extending the comment deadline in that proceeding. Comments are now due on July 18, with replies to be submitted on August 2. With a proceeding with its roots reaching back to 1993 - a few more days to decide the issues involved probably don't make much of a difference!
