Like It Or Not, Sinclair Is Going Under The Beady Eye Of An Independent FCC Judge
- 6 years ago
Unless Sinclair pulls the plug, its proposed deal with Tribune Media will be scrutinized by an independent judge.
The FCC has referred the case to its lone administrative law judge for an evidentiary hearing.
According to Broadcasting Cable, that could take upwards of a year.
Sinclair reportedly made a last-ditch effort to delay the hearing, but the FCC wasn't having it.
Critics claim Sinclair was trying to skirt FCC rules and may have lied in its proposal.
