FCC Announces Public Forum on WWOR-TV License 
Renewal in New Jersey 
Washington, DC – The Media Bureau of the Federal Communications Commission today 
announced it will hold a public forum in New Jersey regarding the license renewal of WWOR-
TV.  Fox Television Stations, Inc. filed an application seeking renewal of its license for WWOR-
TV, Secaucus, New Jersey, on February 1, 2007. Petitions to deny that application were filed by 
Voice for New Jersey and by the Office of Communication of United Church of Christ, Inc. and 
Rainbow/Push Coalition. 
The petitioners contend WWOR-TV has failed to provide a program service and 
adequately meet the needs of its Northern New Jersey viewers. The licensee disputes the claim 
that WWOR-TV’s programming efforts have fallen short of its public interest obligation. 
The Media Bureau has not reached a determination with respect to these claims and has 
decided to hold a local, public forum in which the public and other interested parties can express 
their views and concerns on this matter. Such public input will assist the Commission in 
resolving the matters at issue in this proceeding. 
The hearing date, time, and location are as follows:  
Date: Wednesday, November 28, 2007
Time:
Location:
4:00 p.m. – 6:00 p.m.
Paul Robeson Campus Center
