The National Association of Broadcasters spent nearly $9 million in 2007 to lobby on digital TV, cable and satellite radio matters. The trade group, which represents more than 8,300 free local television and radio stations, spent more than $4.6 million in the second half of 2007 to lobby the federal government, according to a disclosure form posted online Feb. 14 by the Senate's public records office.
