ownership rule and gave licensees with pending waiver requests that involve an existing combination of more than 
one newspaper and/or more than one broadcast station and entities holding waivers pending the completion of the 
Quadrennial Review proceeding 90 days after the effective date of the Quadrennial Review Order to either amend 
their waiver requests or renewal applications or file requests for permanent waivers.  2006 Quadrennial Regulatory

the issuance of a final court order on pending judicial challenges to the Commission’s modified

2008.  The Bureau previously extended the initial filing deadline of October 7, 2008 to November 7, 2008 
for the same purpose.3  Pursuant to 47 C.F.R. § 1.46, the Bureau hereby extends the filing deadline for the 
same reasons cited in its October 7, 2008 Order.4  
2. Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED, that pursuant to delegated authority under Sections 4(i) and 
303(r) of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended, and Sections 0.204, 0.283, and 1.46, 47 C.F.R. 
§§ 0.204, 0.283, 1.46, a 30-day extension of time is granted, sua sponte, until December 8, 2008.  This 
Order does not constitute action on the Media Parties’ request to further extend the deadline.
