FCC Commissioner Copps Suggests Broadcasters Make Changes or Lose Spectrum B&C

FCC Commissioner Michael Copps opened the second of the commission’s three media ownership hearings this week by criticizing broadcasters for "mind-numbing 'monoprogramming',” making newsroom cuts, and continuing to consolidate, B&C reports.

If those trends aren’t stopped, B&C quotes him as saying, then "maybe those who want the spectrum back have the better of the argument after all.”
