Radio-dereg hearing postponed

By John Eggerton -- Broadcasting & Cable, 6/24/2003 4:00:00 AM

The Senate Commerce Committee, headed by chairman John McCain (R-Ariz.), has delayed a Wednesday hearing on radio consolidation due to a memorial service for former Rep. Bob Stump (R-Ariz.).

The hearing has not yet been rescheduled.

The Federal Communications Commission reauthorization bill is still on track for a vote in the committee Thursday.

That bill includes lengthening the media-ownership-rule review from two years to five and may include scrapping the 50% discount for UHF stations when tallying audience reach.
