Attention: open in a new window. PrintE-mail

My column for Gotham Gazette, "The Fight Over Broadcasting's 'White Space'" contains a recap of the debate over white spaces that has raged in New York for the past few months. It also offers a rundown of some of the key points in the FCC's 130-page decision and an explanation of what this could mean for our city.

If you would like to read the full text of the FCC's decision, you can download it here.
