Kelley Drye Full Spectrum

In this edition of Full Spectrum’s recurring series on FCC enforcement, Partner Steve Augustino and Senior Associate Brad Currier cover a flurry of interesting enforcement items released late this summer. These include the first pure “cramming” action of Rosemary Harold’s tenure as Chief of the Enforcement Bureau, a Consent Decree violation, and more actions for causing interference to licensed operations. Steve and Brad also discuss recent high-profile enforcement actions stemming from the alleged misuse of emergency alert tones by CBS, ABC, AMC Networks, and Discovery.
