The Federal Communications Commission will hold an Open Meeting on Thursday, April 10, 2008 at 9:30 a.m. in Room TW-C305, at 445 12th Street, S.W., Washington, D.C. There are eight items on the agenda. Broadcasting&Cable reports that the agenda includes four Enforcement Bureau items targeting tech companies for allegedly failing to follow FCC rules on DTV equipment manufacture, distribution and labeling. The Commission will consider fines against nine manufacturers for failing to build digital TVs that work sufficiently well with the V-chip/TV ratings system, as required by FCC rules. Among others, it will also consider fines against 14 consumer electronics retailers for violating the FCC's requirements that they label analog-only TVs as such.
