FCC Enforcement

From Radio and Records

WASHINGTON -- If the FCC were a cop on the beat, Congressional watchdogs contend, it would have a lousy conviction record. They find that most of the commission's investigations fail to result in any enforcement.

According to a report released on Thursday (March 13) by the General Accountability Office, Congress' investigative arm, only about 9% of the completed investigations resulted in enforcement action, while 83% resulted in no enforcement.

[EDIT]

Does that mean pirates are still getting away with all sort of excuses despite being shut down?

Has this agency gone soft on pirate radio and radio in general?

Comments please.

Considering all the pirates that have been on the air for 5+ years, the FCC isn't doing much. I wish one of the pirates would simulcast Pulse87.
