NATOA CRIES FOUL OVER FCC'S 'SHOT CLOCK' VIOLATION
[SOURCE: Multichannel News, AUTHOR: Linda Haugsted]

NATOA made the stay request along with the National League of Cities, the National Association of Counties, the U.S. Conference of Mayors, the Alliance for Community Media and the Alliance for Communications Democracy. The organizations believe that an order issued by the FCC last March, mandating the 90-window to act on franchise applications, is arbitrary and capricious.
