In response to rapid technological advances in the broadcast industry, Congress enacted the Telecommunications Act of 1996 to “promote competition and relax statutory ownership restrictions.” The Act gave the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) broad authority to regulate broadcast ownership and required, under Section 202(h), that the FCC review its media ownership rules every four years to determine whether they remain “necessary in the public interest as the result of competition.” In conducting these reviews, the FCC considers whether existing rules promote competition, localism, and diversity of viewpoints.
