Report: NAB, Fox To Appeal Ownership Rules Ruling To Supreme Court

Ownership Rules To Be Appealed

An appeal of the FCC ownership rules is coming from the NAB TODAY (12/5), with BROADCASTING AND CABLE's JOHN EGGERTON reporting that the trade organization, as well as NEWS CORPORATION, will ask the Supreme Court to reverse the Third Circuit Court of Appeals decision that left most of the rules in effect.

TODAY is the deadline for appeals of the case, which upheld the Commission's ownership caps and remanded the newspaper-broadcast cross-ownership rule for further deliberation on procedural grounds.
