Continued from page 1A
focusing on the state of the radio industry
after the Telecommunications Act of 1996,
which eased government regulations on
multiple station ownership, and is the key
legislation that allowed Clear Channel to
purchase so many stations and ultimately
become the media power so many are
against today.
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. He has received the Distinguish
Alumni Award from A&M and was i
into the Broadcasting & Cable Hall of ft
The Mays College and Graduate School

Channel CEO.
