Dear FCC:
I appeal to you to please do not modify BBN format in any way. This station has and is blessing many people throughout North Carolina. BBN is truly a God-believing and Bible-believing ministry. There are so few ministries that do not beg or appeal for money, or sell products for profit. I partition and appeal to you to do what is morally right in an immoral society. Do not do anything that would affect such a wide variety of God-loving and God-fearing people.
My address is 8723 Meadowmont View Drive, Charlotte, NC 28269. My number is (704) 912-2434. You can contact me with any questions and comments. · ,,&\OS{lecteo ?ecel'Jeu MI' , 7r'(\'\ To Whom it May Concern: Fce~'Room I am writing to let you know that we do not want anything to change on the Christian Radio Stations. work for a waste management company and it is christianed owned.

In the Matter of Broadcast Localism (MB Docket No. 04-233)
Dear Chairman Martin: I am writing you today regarding the recent news that the Federal Communications Commission is considering a radical re-regulation of our nation's broadcast system in the pending localism proceeding. understand that the Commission intends to reverse decades of deregulatory progress by imposing a series of new and burdensome regulations on broadcasters; and, I ask you to reconsider these actions. Clear Channel Radio New York reaches nearly seven million listeners throughout the Tri-State area on WLTW-FM 'Lite FM', WKTU-FM 'The Beat of New York', WHTZ-FM 'Z100, New York's Hit Music Station', WAXQ-FM 'Q104.3, New York's Classic Rock Station', WWPR-FM 'Power 105.1' New York's Hip Hop and R&B', and WALK-AM/FM 'Long Island's Best Variety.' Each of our stations plays an active role in the community and CCNYC has had, for sometime now, a Local Advisory Board which meets quarterly to assure that we remain current on the needs of our local communities. In 2007 alone, we helped dozens of local charities including Musicians on Call, March of Dimes, lIFEBeat, Autism Speaks, Safe Horizons and many more. Clear Channel New York supported events and initiatives important to these and other local organizations by airing well over $2 million in airtime for Public Service Announcements, public affairs programs, promotions and on-line support. Further, we are currently mentoring disconnected youth, working with the New York City Office of the Department of Youth and Community Development through their Young Adult Internship Program. We hosted seven interns this past fall and will welcome the next group of interns at the end of March. As broadcasters we recognize the important role we play in our community and we strive every day to build upon the foundation we have built over many years. I urge the Commission not to impose any rules that will create unnecessary burdens and impinge on our ability to continue providing valuable community service Sincerely,

Re: In the Matter ofBroadcast Localism (MB Docket No. 04-233)
Dear Chairman Martin,
I am writing in support ofClear Channel Radio New York and to advise oftheir active involvement and support ofthe March ofDimes Foundation. For the past eight years, ZIOO, WLTW, Power 105.1, QI04.3, WKTU, and WALK have been strong partners and provided exemplary promotional support to several initiatives that aim to raise awareness and educate the public about the causes and prevention ofpremature birth, birth defects and infant mortality.
During 2007, all six stations provided valuable airtime to promote a March ofDimes Prematurity Awareness Campaign for the month ofNovember, as well as for our largest annual fundraiser WalkAmerica® during the months ofMarch and April. In addition to PSA placements, the stations provided public affairs programming opportunities, produced targeted messaging for our school teams, and assigned on-air talent to host several pre-event kickoffs as well as the "day of" program. They generously provided music vans at several checkpoints along the walk route and hosted a finish line celebration. All six stations contributed significantly to the overall success ofthe events in Manhattan, Long Island and Staten Island.
Clear Channel Radio New York has been instrumental in providing the listening public with information and messaging that helps improve the health ofbabies and mothers everywhere. I strongly urge that your commission support their ability to continue this important service to the public. Thank you for your consideration. ~ RubyWint Communications Director New York Division ~ CLEARCHANNEL RADIO

In the Matter of Broadcast Localism (MB Docket No. 04-233)
Dear Chairman Martin,
I am writing to you to let you know ofthe vast support and connnitment that Clear Channel Radio in Milwaukee, WISN-AM, WKKV-FM, WMIL-FM, WOKY-AM, WRIT-FM and WQBW-FM, lends to our local community. Our six station cluster goes above and beyond any rules mandated by the FCC in supporting our community.
Most recently, Clear Channel Radio has been supporting Aurora Sinai Medical Center in their "Project Nikki" campaign - a campaign to raise $400,000 for the Neonatal Iotensive Care Unit (NICU) to buy much needed Giraffe OmniBeds. The goal is to make sure that every high-risk newborn baby delivered not only survives but also thrives. Clear Channel Radio's commitment to ruuning a large number ofPSA's to help raise contributions to purchase beds, while increasing the community understanding about Sinai's NICU, is only a start as to our support to this campaign.
Clear Channel RadiOMilwaukee has also been a supporter ofthe Milwaukee Police Department's WeTip Campaign, launched in2(j05~ Since Its inception in the community, our six station cluster has run thousands ofPSA's in support ofthis program. The WeTip hotline is a campaign that helps citizens take back the streets in our community by reporting crimes without fear. All the citizens need to do is call the 1-800 WeTip hotline number to place a completely anonymous crime tip. It is a reward based hotline.
Other community organizations we support wiih PSA's, remote broadcasts, appearances and online inventory include The Hunger Task Force, Second Harvest, MADD, Aids Resource Center, Children's HOSpital of Wisconsin, and so many more.
Clear Channel Milwaukee is continuously growing their community support. I urge the FCC not to impose any rules that will hamper our ability to perfonn this very valuable connnunity service. ~CoZL¥IC~ Cindy McDowell VPlMarket Manager WISN-~M • WKKV-FM • WLTO-FM • WMIL-FM • WOKY-~M • WRIT-FM 121 00 W.

Martin Federal Communications Commission 445 12'" Street, SW Washington, DC 20554 In the Matter ofBroadcast Localism (MB Docket No. 04-233) Dear Chairman Martin, It is truly my honor to write to you today about the tremendous commitment that Clear Channel has made over the years to public service and to providing outstanding media support to good causes in North Texas. As the Public Affairs Director for Southwest Transplant Alliance since 1995, it has been nothing short of a joy to work with Anna de Haro and the Clear Channel team. Clear Channel has worked to develop contacts in a wide variety of fields, and they were smart to place Ms. deHaro in a role that took advantage of outstanding interview skills that put her guests at ease. Clear Channel has been a consistent supporter of causes that matter to the community, not only in the remarkably professional way that they have produced their public affairs shows, but also in the caring way in which they have personally involved themselves with so many community groups and causes. Several Clear Channel employees have even come out to represent the company by playing on the media softball team at our annual Texas Rangers Donor Awareness Game, which shows that this is one team that is not afraid to get its hands dirty while supporting causes that have become important to its audience. " . Southwest Transplant Alliance values its partnership with Clear Channel's public affairs department and very much appreciates the work that the company has put into makinq its public service programs so much a part of the community it serves. We hope to have a long and mutually supportive relationship with Clear Channel that will continue to benefit the North Texas community, in our case, those in need of life-saving transplants. Organ donation has increased dramatically over the years, and I have to believe that the dedication of Clear Channel's public affairs team has to be at least one of the reasons for this the tremendous success of donation in our community. , .
