SPANISH BROADCASTING SYSTEM, INC. Nancy A. Ory Paul A. Cicelski Laura M. Berman Lerman Senter PLLC 2001 L Street NW, Suite 400 Washington, DC 20036 Tel. (202) 429-8970 April 19, 2017 Their Attorneys -ii- SUMMARY In this Petition, WSBS Licensing, Inc. and its parent company Spanish Broadcasting System, Inc. (“SBS”) seek modification of the television market of WSBS-TV, Key West, Florida (the “Station”), to reinstate 41 communities (the “Communities”) located in the Miami- Ft. Lauderdale Designated Market Area (the “Miami-Ft. Lauderdale DMA” or the “DMA”) that were previously deleted from the Station’s television market by virtue of a series of market modification decisions released in 1996 and 1997. SBS seeks recognition that the Communities located in Miami-Dade and Broward Counties form an integral part of WSBS-TV’s natural market. The elimination of the Communities prior to SBS’s ownership of the Station cannot diminish WSBS-TV’s longstanding service to the Communities, to which WSBS-TV provides significant locally-produced news and public affairs programming targeted to residents of the Communities, and where the Station has developed many substantial advertising relationships with local businesses throughout the Communities within the Miami-Ft. Lauderdale DMA. Cable operators have obviously long recognized that a clear nexus exists between the Communities and WSBS-TV’s programming because they have been voluntarily carrying WSBS-TV continuously for at least a decade and continue to carry the Station today. Tellingly, WGEN-TV, the only other television station licensed to Key West and which shares a tower with WSBS-TV, is entitled to must carry in the Communities pursuant to a Commission decision granting such mandatory carriage with facts nearly identical in every meaningful way to the facts of this case. Further, as a Spanish-language “specialty” Station, WSBS-TV’s Nielsen ratings show a strong connection to the Communities, with the Station achieving an average share of 3% among Hispanic viewers (Monday through Saturday 8:00 p.m. through 11:00 p.m. and Sunday 7:00 p.m. through 11:00 p.m.) for at least the -iii- last five years. The Bureau should recognize these market facts and the historical ties between WSBS-TV and the Communities and permanently reassign them to WSBS-TV’s market. As shown herein, the factual evidence provided by SBS provides overwhelming and conclusive evidence demonstrating that WSBS-TV is entitled to mandatory MVPD carriage in the Communities. In the Communities, WSBS-TV satisfies each of the five key statutory factors used to justify the requested market modification and, as demonstrated herein, each of the Communities have always formed a fundamental part of the Station’s natural economic market. In short, in granting this Petition, the Bureau would simply be memorializing the already longstanding carriage of WSBS-TV on the cable systems that service the Communities, consistent with the statutory factors considered in market modification proceedings. For these reasons, and those discussed further herein, SBS respectfully urges the Bureau to grant the Petition forthwith. -iv- TABLE OF CONTENTS SUMMARY .................................................................................................................................... ii TABLE OF EXHIBITS ................................................................................................................. vi I.

  • Chapter 4 the Right-Wing Media Enablers of Anti-Islam Propaganda
    Chapter 4 The right-wing media enablers of anti-Islam propaganda Spreading anti-Muslim hate in America depends on a well-developed right-wing media echo chamber to amplify a few marginal voices. The think tank misinforma- tion experts and grassroots and religious-right organizations profiled in this report boast a symbiotic relationship with a loosely aligned, ideologically-akin group of right-wing blogs, magazines, radio stations, newspapers, and television news shows to spread their anti-Islam messages and myths. The media outlets, in turn, give members of this network the exposure needed to amplify their message, reach larger audiences, drive fundraising numbers, and grow their membership base. Some well-established conservative media outlets are a key part of this echo cham- ber, mixing coverage of alarmist threats posed by the mere existence of Muslims in America with other news stories. Chief among the media partners are the Fox News empire,1 the influential conservative magazine National Review and its website,2 a host of right-wing radio hosts, The Washington Times newspaper and website,3 and the Christian Broadcasting Network and website.4 They tout Frank Gaffney, David Yerushalmi, Daniel Pipes, Robert Spencer, Steven Emerson, and others as experts, and invite supposedly moderate Muslim and Arabs to endorse bigoted views. In so doing, these media organizations amplify harm- ful, anti-Muslim views to wide audiences. (See box on page 86) In this chapter we profile some of the right-wing media enablers, beginning with the websites, then hate radio, then the television outlets. The websites A network of right-wing websites and blogs are frequently the primary movers of anti-Muslim messages and myths.
