## Abstract

This document amends the Commission's local TV multiple ownership rule and its radio/TV cross-ownership rule. This document also adopts a grandfathering policy for certain TV local marketing agreements and certain conditional waivers of the radio/TV cross- ownership rule. The purpose of this action is to balance the Commission's competition and diversity goals with the efficiencies and public interest benefits that can be associated with common ownership of same-market broadcast stations.
