The FCC today released details for its October 26th Broadcaster Learn Everything About Reverse-Auctions Now (“LEARN”) Program Workshop, to be held in the Commission Meeting Room at the FCC’s headquarters in Washington, D.C. and webcast live at www.fcc.gov/live.    The workshop is the first in a series that seeks to provide broadcasters guidance on the incentive auction process, about which we have reported previously.
