KCET, the former flagship PBS station in Los Angeles, is being fined $10,000 over an incident with its public inspection file. The FCC issued a Notice of Apparent Liability to the station for not making its public inspection file available. The notice says KCET “willfully and repeatedly” violated the requirement.
A federal appeals court threw out a $1.21 million penalty against 44 ABC television stations for violating broadcast indecency standards by showing a 2003 NYPD Blue episode that depicted a woman’s nude buttocks.
