Belo's proposal to provide free air time to candidates for the United States House, Senate, and gubernatorial races. The FCC determined that A.H. Belo's proposal was exempt from the "equal opportunities" requirements of the Communications Act, as programming providing "on-the-spot news coverage of a bona fide news event . " This is the same proposal that the FEC will be considering at its meeting tomorrow, October 3, 1996. As you are aware, the FCC previously approved a proposal by Fox Broadcasting, Capital Cities/ABC, and PBS to provide on-the-spot coverage of presidential candidates. In the A.H. Belo decision, the FCC applied the same principles in the context of congressional and statewide races, and determined that Belo's proposal for other contests also constituted "news coverage" for FCC purposes. We would appreciate your making this decision part of the record in the FEC's consideration of A.H. Belo's advisory opinion request. Thank you very much for your assistance. Sincerely, Jam Enc.

    RE COPY ORtGlNAL 0 R IG Iti A L Before the FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION ~~~~ Washington, D.C. 480554 OCT 15 2002 In the Matter of Amendment of Section 73.622(b), MB Docket No. 02-222 Table of Allotments, 1 RM- 1049 1 Digital Television Broadcast Stations. 1 (Spokane, Washington) 1 To: Chief, Video Services Division REPLY COMMENTS OF KSKN TELEVISION, INC. KSKN Television, Inc., a subsidiary of Belo Corp. (collectively, “Belo”), by its attorneys, submits these reply comments in the above-referenced docket to amend the Table of Allotments for the digital television (“DTV”) service to change the initial DTV channel allotment for station KSKN-DT, Spokane, Washington, from channel 36 to channel 48.’ In light of a major change in circumstances that has taken place since it filed its petition for rulemaking, Belo requests that the Commission temporarily withhold further action in the instant proceeding until the agency resolves the proposed exchange of analog and digital allotments for KUID-TV, Moscow, Idaho.’ Subject to the conditions described below, grant of that exchange would result in a preferential arrangement of allotments and prevent the displacement of television translator station K48DX, which, according to its licensee, serves several thousand residents in Bonner County, Idaho. I See Notice of Proposed Rule Making, MB Docket No. 02-222, RM-10491 (rel. August 9,2002), 2 See Notice of Proposed Rule Making,MB Docket No. 02-3 15, RM-10566 (rel. October 9,2002). As Belo explained in its petition, it is severely constrained in its ability to increase KSKN-DT’s power on channel 36 to a level comparable to that of other stations in the market,3 due to the presence of the channel 35 DTV allotment for KUID-DT, Moscow, Idaho.
