FCC Probes News Bias Charges
Against WAR Owner Richards
:WASHINGTON (JTA) — The
Federal Communications Com-
mission has ordered open hear-
ings into charges brotight against
G. A. Richards, owner of radio
station KMPC by the Radio News
Writers Club of Los Angeles and

hiS . news room staff to slant news-
casts in an anti-Semitic and
otherwise biased manner. No date
has yet been set for the hearings.
(Mr. Richards also is the owner
of Radio Station WJR in Detroit.)
The Radio News Writers Club,
early in March, forwarded to the
FCC sworn statements of three
of its members, former employ-
ees at YMPC, and photostatic
copies of letters that Richards
reportedly addressed to ont of
them, alleging that Richards had
ordered them to "slant" news
stories. Dr. Stephen S. Wise,
president of the American Jew-
ish Congress, filed a formal peti-
tion with the Commission on
March 11 calling for a full in-
vestigation and revocation of
KMPC's licenie should the
charges prove to be true. The
CIO also asked for hearings in
the case.
-
On March 19, FCC ordered a
full investigation of the charges.
The investigation also covered
two other stations owned by
Richards, WGAR in Cleveland
and WJR. WGAR has been
granted two temporary exten-
sions of license "pending outcome
of the investigation."
The Commission, announcing
its decision to hold hearings, said
that information obtained during
the investigation "tending to sub-
stantiate the information sub-
mitted by the Radio News Club
raises substantial questions with
respect to the qualifications of
the above mentioned licensee and
of G. A. Richards, controlling
