Title: Historic Victory for Community Radio, FCC Puts 1,000 Low-Power FM Frequencies
Post by: Zoidberg on June 20, 2013, 2337 UTC
I'm not sure how "new" this news really is:

"In a major victory for the community radio movement after a 15-year campaign, the Federal Communications Commission has announced it will soon begin accepting applications for hundreds of new low-power FM radio stations in October. This means nonprofits, labor unions and community groups have a one-time-only chance this year to own a bit of the broadcast airwaves. It is being heralded as "the largest expansion of community radio in United States history."" -- http://www.democracynow.org/2013/6/20/in_historic_victory_for_community_radio
