Most news
about FCC actions against free radio begins as rumors.
The Enforcement Action Database is an attempt to
separate fact from fiction. It's also a
study-in-progress of the FCC's patterns of enforcement.
Information
in this kind of thing is traditionally sketchy; if you
can fill any holes or have updated information, please
don't hesitate to contact
me.
