Infinity seeks reconsideration of Infinity Broadcasting Corporation of Washington, D.C., 15 FCC Rcd 10387 (Enforcement Bureau 2000) (``Forfeiture Order''), which imposed a $4,000 forfeiture for a willful violation of section 73.1206 of the Commission's rules, 47 C.F.R. ยง 73.1206, regarding the broadcast of telephone conversations.
Infinity argues that it used the procedures described above in good faith reliance on three prior Commission staff decisions that led it to believe that its use of digital delay devices ensured compliance with the rule.
Also, in each case, Infinity broadcast the entire conversation, including that portion that occurred before notice, but contended it could have avoided doing so because delay devices allowed it to dump a conversation if the person called had objected to the conversation or terminated it after receipt of Infinity's notice.

Infinity has provided no support, in the indecency context or any other context, for its proposition that if a complainant alleges certain facts and a licensee says it has no idea whether the complainant is correct, the licensee should win.
The FCC has indecency regulations we are duty-bound to enforce: broadcasters must not air ``language or material that, in context, depicts or describes, in terms patently offensive as measured by contemporary community broadcast standards for the broadcast medium, sexual or excretory organs or activities'' between the hours of 6:00 a.m.
Infinity relies on the argument that airing the unedited song would have generated more consumer complaints, but no member of its staff has provided affirmative testimony that the edited version was in fact aired.

 Competitive Impact Statement : U.S. v. Westinghouse Electric Corporation and Infinity Broadcasting Corporation
The prayer for relief seeks: (a) adjudication that Westinghouse's proposed acquisition of Infinity would violate Section 7 of the Clayton Act; (b) preliminary and permanent injunctive relief preventing the consummation of the proposed acquisition; (c) an award to the United States of the costs of this action; and (d) such other relief as is proper.
Infinity owns 42 radio stations in 13 metropolitan areas across the United States, including two located in the Philadelphia metropolitan area and four located in the Boston metropolitan area.
Because the direct competition between the Westinghouse and the Infinity stations would be eliminated by the proposed merger, and because advertisers seeking to reach male listeners between the ages of 18 and 54 would have inferior alternatives to the merged entity, the acquisition would give Westinghouse the ability to raise prices and reduce quality.

 Infinity Broadcasting braces for Howard-less future - Oct. 6, 2004
Infinity has been struggling in recent years, and there have been rumors that Viacom, which acquired the company in 2000, might shed all or parts of the unit.
Stern, who started at Infinity in the mid-1980s, has proven to be a solid revenue generator for Infinity.
If, as it appears, Stern stays at Infinity through the end of his contract in 2005, and, assuming he doesn't spend the next 15 months shamelessly promoting satellite radio while on the air, the impact of his departure won't be felt for more than a year.

 Seelig v. Infinity Broadcasting
Defendants Infinity Broadcasting Corporation, Uzette Salazar, Vincent Crackhorn and Steve Dinardo filed a special motion to strike plaintiff's complaint and asserted that the suit constituted a SLAPP (strategic lawsuit against public participation) suit pursuant to Code of Civil Procedure section 425.16 (hereafter § 425.16).
In her opposition papers, plaintiff, in turn, provided the trial court with a transcription of that broadcast which, upon our review, appears to differ from the colloquy heard on the audiotape in minor respects unrelated to any of the phrases at the center of this dispute.
As a result of the radio broadcast, plaintiff filed a complaint against defendants alleging causes of action for: (1) slander per se; (2) slander; (3) invasion of privacy; (4) negligent hiring, retention and supervision of employees; (5) and intentional infliction of emotional distress.

 Los Angeles Business Journal: Infinity's KFWB back in limbo with FCC's switch on trust status - Media & Technology - ...
Infinity Broadcasting Inc. radio station KFWB-AM (980) remains in regulatory limbo after the Federal Communications Commission rescinded its approval of the company's application to put the station into a trust only a week after it gave its okay.
The move has been viewed as an effort by Infinity parent Viacom Inc. to retain all seven of its local radio stations--one more than current rules allow--while the FCC weighs reforms that could further loosen ownership limits in individual markets.
Bill Clark, a former president of Shamrock Broadcasting who has been tabbed by Infinity to head the proposed KFWB trust, said the application may be attracting scrutiny because it is different than other trust requests.
