The hearing will feature a panel with opportunities for public comment afterward.

WWOR-TV, channel 9, which is owned by Fox Television Stations, Inc. is seeking to renew their license to broadcast on the public airwaves. However, public interest groups and concerned citizens have filed a petition to deny their license because WWOR has not met their commitment to serve the public interest.

This hearing is a rare opportunity for members of the public to speak out about the quality of the local news and entertainment on WWOR.
