The
Media Access Project filed petitions with the FCC to deny pending license renewals for commercial television stations in Chicago and Milwaukee. Broadcasters in both cities failed to meet their public interest obligations because their 2004 news coverage largely overlooked local and statewide elections, according to petitions filed on behalf of
Chicago Media Action and Milwaukee Public Interest Media Coalition. In a separate petition,
Third Coast Press included the city's public TV stations in its
motion (pdf) to deny renewals to Chicago's TV outlets.
