Feingold was one of five senators who voted against the Telecommunications Act of 1996. But Feingold is not the only person accusing Clear Channel of inappropriate business practices. On Jan. 31, another in a series of lawsuits involving the company came to an end when a Miami District Court dismissed an anti-trust lawsuit filed by Spanish Broadcasting System Inc. (SBS). SBS is the largest Hispanic radio broad casting company in the United States and alleged that Clear Channel and Hispanic Broadcasting Corp. were using anti-compet itive activities to force their company out of business. Clear Channel is also under fire by musi cians and others who feel their mass owner ship of radio stations inhibits the musical diversity that once thrived on the airwaves. “The unprecedented control over the music industry by conglomerates is hurting the music business and the culture." Don Henley, former member of The Eagles, testi fied before the committee. “It is preventing talented, new artists from emerging and is generally casting a pall over a business that has already been decimated by peer to peer sharing, a faltering economy and fierce com petition from other entertainment industries.” Henley spoke to the committee on behalf of the Recording Artists’ Coalition, which he co-founded in 1999 with singer-song writer Sheryl Crow and whose members include Linkin Park, Christina Aguilera and Stevie Nicks. Mays’ response to these accusations is that his company offers many formats for stations such as an all-news format first used at one of his stations in San Antonio in 1975. Opponents do not feel this use of format ting adequately achieves musical diversity. “Measuring music diversity by count ing the number of radio formats is like measuring the variety of food in your pantry by counting the number of cans without looking at what is inside them," said Jenny Toomey, executive director of the Future of Music Coalition, to the sen- Ck ate committee. Another debate surrounding Channel and radio regulations is the practi of pay-for-play, which requires artists top radio stations to play their songs on air. “They (Clear Channel) can make break an artist by their decision to put sot on the radio,” said Kyle Hale, KANMn® director and senior political science Mays denies that his company pates in these practices. “Let me say clearly, and for the recoi that Clear Channel does not use the thn of reduced airplay to force musicians tour with us or retaliate againstcompetin concert promoters by failing to ptomot; their shows on the air,” Mays testified the hearing. Clear Channel was founded when co-signed the note on a single San A radio station in 1972. Today, in additi*' radio and television stations. Clear ChsT owns 776,000 outdoor advertising and is a leading concert promoter. Mays, class of 1957 received a MBA.
