Iowa's WHO Radio Crosses the Line – File Your FCC Complaint Here

Iowa's WHO Radio Crosses the Line – File Your FCC Complaint Here


“I might just remind you hell is a really hot, really forever place.” – Steve Deace, WHO Radio Talk Show Host, M-F 4-7.

BFIA found this video on YouTube via OneIowa.org.  Everyone should know what Iowans are hearing on WHO-Radio every day – hours and hours of this stuff, reaching a very large audience.   (We couldn't swear to it, but it sounds like Deace's fellow WHO conservative talker, Jan Mickelson, conducting the interview). 

What you can do about it:  Contact Clear Channel and remind them about their responsibility to air fair and balanced programming. 

And contact WHO-Radio management:
WHO-Radio Program Director Van Harden vanharden@clearchannel.com
WHO-Radio General Manager Joel McCrea joelmccrea@clearchannel.com
or Call toll free: 800-469-4295 or 515-245-8900 

Then, file a complaint with the FCC.  Here's how: 
(1) On the web form, select under complaint type, “Broadcast (TV and Radio), cable, and satellite issues. 
(2) Click “next” 
(3) Under complaint category, select “Unauthorized, unfair, biased, illegal broadcasts (does NOT include Obscene, Profane or Indecent material)” 
(4) click “next”
(5) Check the “unfair or biased programming (includes biased or distorted news stories by the media, broadcasting threatening or intimidating statements about an individual or a group)” box on the web-form.
(6) click “next” 
(7) Recommended method is “online form.”  Click on it.  OR
(8) You may email your completed complaint form and supporting documents to fccinfo@fcc.gov. 
The complaint form is very easy to fill out.
