FCC Chairman Wheeler: FCC Will Respond to Broadcaster Repacking Concerns

Federal Communications Commission Chairman Tom Wheeler said he has heard and will respond to concerns from Sinclair and other broadcasters about repacking issues after the incentive auctions.

In a letter to the FCC, Sinclair raised numerous issues about the time it would take to repack and the costs. "We had a meeting with broadcasters in a group and repacking is clearly one of the issues that they are sensitive to," he said. "We are sensitive to it as well, and we are going to address their issues."
