E-book Title: ON-AIR PHONE CALLS: LEGAL vs. ILLEGAL
Author: Dan O'Day
Book Description: How to Keep Your Radio Station From Being Fined And/Or Sued
26,756% Return On Investment
$4,000 is 26,756% greater than the cost of this book.
This book costs almost nothing.
But it can save your station thousands of dollars.
Blunt Talk About The F.C.C.
In some areas, the F.C.C.'s rules are almost impossible to understand.
In some areas, their rules are vague. Inscrutable, even.
But not when it comes to airing telephone calls.
The F.C.C.'s rules regarding the broadcast of telephone conversations are very clear.
If your radio station violates those rules, you deserve to pay the thousands of dollars in fines that will be levied against you.
You Have Five Choices
- Research this topic yourself. Locate the pertinent F.C.C. regulations. Make notes. Make sure you understand the research and then distribute the key points to your staff - in concise, easy-to-understand language.
This should take only a few hours of your time - perhaps a day.
(If you compare the value of your time with the ridiculously low price of this book, you probably can think of many more profitable things you could be doing with that time.)
- Have a staff member do the research and write up the report for everyone else at your station.
(Even if you pay just minimum wage to a part-time employee, it will cost you more than I'm charging for this book.)
- Ask your attorney to prepare an in-depth "advisory report" on how to broadcast telephone calls without violating either state wiretapping/eavesdropping laws* or F.C.C. regulations.
Good attorneys are worth the large fees they charge. If you have a good attorney, you might choose this option.
(*ON-AIR PHONE CALLS: Legal vs Illegal also discusses the applicability of state laws regarding the recording of telephone conversations.)
- Download all the information you need right now for about what you'd pay for a very good hamburger (plus fries and a soft drink).
- Don't do anything. Just take your chances and hope that everyone at your station already knows all the rules regarding on-air phone calls.
If you're a Station Owner and you lose this gamble, you'll have the pleasure of contributing several thousand dollars to the U.S. government.
If you're a Station Manager, Market Manager, or Program Director, you'll experience the joy of explaining to the Owner why your failure to protect their investment has resulted in your flushing several thousand of their bucks down the toilet.
ONLY for U.S. Radio Stations
ON-AIR PHONE CALLS: Legal vs Illegal is only for U.S. radio stations. If your radio station is not regulated by the F.C.C., this book won't be of any value to you.
If your radio station is regulated by the F.C.C., you must have ON-AIR PHONE CALLS: Legal vs Illegal on hand for easy reference by you and your staff.
Quick Overview of Contents
- How State Laws affect your radio station's broadcast of phone calls
- The first way your phone calls can get you in trouble with the F.C.C. (Most radio people are aware that the F.C.C. has rules regarding this aspect. But most people aren't sure exactly what those rules are.)
- The second way your phone calls can get you in trouble with F.C.C. (The F.C.C. has done a terrible job of educating radio stations about this. As a result, almost no radio station knows this rule even exists. But they do get fined for violating it!)
This, by the way, is the regulation that nailed that Detroit station to the tune of $4,000.
- My specific recommendations for keeping your station safe & legal.
- "The Bottom Line" - Three paragraphs that distill all the information I've researched for you. (I go into considerably more detail in explaining everything. But once I've explained it, I also boil it all down to a single page for your future reference.)
- How Do Others "Get Away With It"? - Many radio programs appear to violate the very regulations I explain in ON-AIR PHONE CALLS: Legal vs Illegal. I explain how they do it. It is not necessary that you know how they "get away with it," but so many people ask me that I decided to "pull back the curtain" and reveal these secrets.
