FCC Rules on Personal Attacks
Advertisements [?]
I found this on another board under an unrelated (i.e., non-political topic).

http://www.fcc.gov/mb/audio/decdoc/public_and_broadcasting.html#RETENTION

As I read this, people like Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity couldn't afford the postage to send out the transcripts of everyone they attack.

I wonder if this couldn't be used against the radio staitions that carry them. I would presume the attacked person (someone with legal "STANDING") would have to complain.

But this sounds like a fun job for some DNC interns.
