The FCC Media Bureau dismissed an informal objection to the license renewal of KSCO(AM) Santa Cruz, California. The objection by Thomas Irion alleged that station hosts openly advocate criminal behavior, and the station owner engages in anti-social behavior on the air, the bureau said in a letter to Irion (http://bit.ly/XdlpJi). The objection was filed one month after the bureau granted the application, it said. Irion provided no explanation for why he didn’t object to the application before its grant, it said. Irion “failed to show that the commission erred in granting the application,” the bureau said. The bureau also said it treated the objection as a petition for reconsideration.
