tv-ownership

The FCC voted 2–1 to eliminate the national TV ownership cap of 39 percent, claiming authority to override a limit set by Congress. The decision will allow case-by-case merger review and is expected to enable larger broadcast consolidation, drawing lawsuits from advocacy groups.

FCC计划废除39%的全国电视所有权上限，改为逐案审查。此举被批评为有利于大型广播公司，并可能损害地方新闻。
