Re: [IRCA] IRCA Digest, Vol 51, Issue 51



My favorite part is "we note that the Commission has long held that statements by individual Commission staff members are not binding on the Commission and the Commission has repeatedly warned that parties who rely on staff advice or interpretations do so at their own risk. Thus, even if a staff member advised Christian Family Network that the Commission would consider an STA request, such advice has no bearing on our findings here".

Individual Commission staff members. Does that mean if you can get more than one Commission staff member to make a statement then that statement is binding on the Commission? If you rely on staff advice or interpretations you do so at your own risk?

So what is the staff there for? I guess if you do what they say you're on your own and they can walk you right into a big fine. Oops; I forgot. They call it a monetary forfeiture This is absolutely ridiculous.

Here's a trippy story out of West Michigan - four years after its
license was deleted, WOLY is still on the air, and the FCC can't seem to
do much about it thus far:

So if you hear WOLY at sunset, it's not a ghost from the past!
