Abstract
In this document, the Commission conforms its rules to comply with the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2004 (Appropriations Act). The Appropriations Act, among other things, directs the Commission to modify the national television ownership limit to specify 39 percent as the maximum aggregate national audience reach of any single television station owner. The Appropriations Act also adds a new section to the Telecommunications Act of 1996, which the Commission now implements.
