FCC Approves License Transfer to New Audacy

STATEMENT

Federal Communications Commission FCC 24-94

STATEMENT OF
CHAIRWOMAN JESSICA ROSENWORCEL

Re: In the Matter of Audacy License, LLC, as Debtor-in-Possession (Assignor) and Audacy License, LLC (Assignee) Application for Consent to Assignment of Licenses, Memorandum Opinion and Order, Application File Nos. 0000241074 et al.

In this decision, we approve the assignment of licenses held by Audacy, which has been under the control of a bankruptcy court, to the new Audacy, so that the company can emerge from bankruptcy proceedings. The process we use to facilitate this license transfer is identical to the one recently used by the agency in the bankruptcy proceedings of Cumulus Media in 2018, iHeart Media in 2019, Liberman Television in 2019, Fusion Connect in 2019, Windstream Holdings in 2020, America-CV Station Group in 2021, and Alpha Media in 2021. To suggest otherwise is cynical and wrong, as this precedent clearly demonstrates. Our practice here and in these prior cases is designed to facilitate the prompt and orderly emergence from bankruptcy of a company that is a licensee under the Communications Act.
