"Turn On, Tune In, or Drop Out: The Future of Competing Radio Broadcast Media"

Description:

Issues of competition in and regulation of radio broadcasting have recently received much media attention with the advent of satellite radio and the planned transition to digital terrestrial radio.  Additionally, the legalization of low-power radio is anticipated.  Radio issues have garnered front-page articles in Fortune and Barron’s magazines in the past year.  This year’s Entertainment Law Symposium will focus on current regulatory and legislative issues affecting competition among three major radio broadcast media: terrestrial, satellite, and low-power radio.
