Fcc says us late night daytime talk shows must offer equal time candidate (reuters.com)
'Until now, talk shows have qualified for the equal opportunities exemption as genuine news interviews, ever since the FCC's Media Bureau granted an exemption to the interview portion of Jay Leno’s "Tonight Show" in 2006. Networks have relied on the ruling as a precedent for recent interviews with political candidates.' FCC says they haven't shown any reason their interview portions of their shows qualify for an exemption.
