The Commission has before it a request for a declaratory ruling filed on March 8, 1996, by Joyner Management Services, Inc. ("Joyner Management") seeking a Commission determination that the "Tom Joyner Radio Program" is a "bonafide news interview program," exempt from the "equal opportunities" provision of Section 31 5(a) of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended (47 U.S.C. Section 31 5(a)). 2. Joyner Management states that it owns and produces the "Tom Joyner Radio Program" and that the syndicated program has aired regularly on radio station WPTF(AM), Raleigh, North Carolina, and several other radio stations in North Carolina since October 1994.

Joyner Management maintains that the "Tom Joyner Radio Program" is moderated by Tom Joyner and that the editorial control of the program rests solely with Tom Joyner©s good faith journalistic judgment and not by an intention to advance the candidacy of any particular candidate. Joyner Management further states that selection of interviewees is guided by newsworthiness of the persons to be interviewed or the topics they will discuss. 22360 DISCUSSION 4. Section 315(a) of the Communications Act provides that if a licensee permits a legally qualified candidate for public office to use a broadcast station, it must afford equal opportunities to other such candidates for that office.

WPTF Programming Changes
IMMEDIATE RELEASE WPTF RADIO GREATLY EXPANDS LINE-UP AND LOCAL NEWS COVERAGE; ADDS SECOND FREQUENCY RALEIGH, NC (March 12, 2012) WPTF, the second oldest radio station in North Carolina, has announced it will expand its coverage of local news, traffic and weather while adding a second broadcast frequency to accommodate more of the station’s popular talk programming. Beginning Tuesday, March 13th, the respected WPTF brand will now identify two (2) unique radio choices in the Triangle: NewsRadio 680 WPTF and TalkRadio 850 WPTF. NewsRadio 680 WPTF will feature continuous coverage of local, national and world news utilizing the resources of Triangle- based reporters and anchors, the Associated Press, CBS News and the North Carolina News Network. The new TalkRadio 850 WPTF will boast a weekday line-up of popular local and syndicated talk personalities including Bill LuMaye, Neal Boortz, Clark Howard, Brad & Britt and Mark Levin. Both stations will offer enhanced coverage of Triangle traffic conditions through an exclusive arrangement with the Triangle Traffic Network. In making both announcements, WPTF VP/GM David Stuckey said the timing is ideal for this kind of non-stop approach to informing and entertaining one of the most educated markets in the country. “With the Triangle’s base of universities and tech companies, it’s obvious we serve some of the most intelligent and discerning listeners in America,” he said. “NewsRadio 680 WPTF is where people will hear about the big events of the day, while TalkRadio 850 WPTF is where they’ll talk about those stories.” Stuckey noted that while WPTF has proudly conservative roots dating back to 1924, the two stations will strive for balanced news coverage and an open exchange of all opinions across the ideological spectrum.

Wptf Radio Announces Enhanced Local News Coverage and Fresh Brand Identity
IMMEDIATE RELEASE WPTF RADIO ANNOUNCES ENHANCED LOCAL NEWS COVERAGE AND FRESH BRAND IDENTITY RALEIGH, NC (December 16, 2009) WPTF Radio, the big signal voice of Central and Eastern North Carolina since 1924, has announced an evolution of its familiar talk radio format to include significant enhancements to its overall news presentation. Effective December 31, 2009, the Curtis Media Group station will rebrand as “NewsRadio 680 WPTF” and more than double its locally-originated news content every weekday. To underscore the commitment to providing second-to-none radio news coverage, the station has entered into a long-term agreement with CBS News and will have at its disposal the full depth of that network’s worldwide resources. The new weekday line-up at NewsRadio 680 WPTF features Brian Freeman hosting “North Carolina’s Morning News,” 5:00 to 9:00AM. This fast-paced, morning magazine will incorporate a team of anchors, reporters and contributors with a decidedly local focus. Freeman joins the station from a similar role at Curtis Media sister station, WSJS in Greensboro-Winston- Salem-High Point. Current morning anchor Scott Fitzgerald slides into the 9:00-to-11:00AM slot hosting a new, mid-morning talk show centered on the issues and headlines that matter most to listeners in the Triangle and Eastern North Carolina. Faith-based financial advisor Dave Ramsey’s syndicated call-in program will follow from 11:00AM to 2:00PM. Both Fitzgerald’s and Ramsey’s shows will feature news from WPTF and CBS at the top and bottom of every hour plus frequent traffic and weather updates.

THE CURTIS MEDIA STORY 1968—2008 To longtime BMI shareholder and North Carolina broadcasting legend Don Curtis Congratulations on the 40th anniversary of Curtis Media Group and thank you for your strong support of our songwriters and music publishers. Your Friends at BMI® WELCOME Dear Friends and Partners, It is with great pleasure—and no small measure of humility—that I present to you “Live and Local, The Curtis Media Story,” commemorating four decades of service to the radio listeners of North Carolina. Inside this keepsake publication, you’ll learn much about our rich history while, at the same time, getting to know some of our fabulous people and, of course, Don Curtis himself. Also included are comprehensive descriptions of our radio stations and Internet companies plus some very memorable photo archives. I find it almost inconceivable that Don Curtis founded this company the very same year I entered high school. To this day, Don is an energetic and passionate visionary, who I consider a good friend and contemporary. It rarely occurs to me that he was well on his way to becoming one of our industry’s most respected op- erators while I was still dreaming of becoming a big-time deejay. Thank goodness he stuck with his plan, and I abandoned mine! These last six years have been among the most rewarding of my career. Don Curtis fosters an environment of creativity, community service and a competitive spirit. I’m grateful he’s allowed me to assemble a team that’s among the most talented and dedicated in all of commercial radio and, in return, we never, ever take our indepen- dence for granted.

"North Carolina Emergency Response Plan in Support of Shearon Harris
NHIEX E EHERGENCY BROADCAST SYSTEH PROCEDURES FOR THE SHEARON HARRIS NUCLEAR.POMER PLANT OPERATIONAL AREA I. PURPOSE. This annex establishes procedures for the activation of the Emergency Broadcast System (EBS) and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) tone aler t radio system in case of an accident/incident at the Shearon Harris Nuclear Power Plant. II. GENERAL. This annex recognizes the State of North Carolina and the County of Make as the lead coordinating agencies for public notification and warning in case of an accident/incident at the Shearon Harris Nuclear Power Plant. This recognition, however, imposes no restriction on the counties of Chatham, Harnett, and Lee in meeting their responsibility for the prompt notification and warning of their respective citizens. It merely vests a collective trust in one governmental agency to act as the catalyst for initiating an event common to several parties which must be carefully coordinated. III. CONCEPT A. The activation of the Emergency Broadcast System (EBS) and the NOAA weather radio system will be a function of the Emergency Operations Center. EBS and NOAA may be activated under one of three different situations: 1. A situation in which the class of emergency is a "General Emergency" with a recommendation for PROTECTIVE ACTION to be taken and the Make County Marning Point Telecommunicator is UNABLE to notify any key official within five (5) minutes. 2. An incident in which the counties have direction and control and the State is unable to assume immediate effective coordination. 3. The State of North Carolina has established the State Emergency Response Team (SERT) at it's headquarters in Raleigh and has assumed direction and control at the request of the four counties or the Governor has issued a "Disaster Declaration."
