FCC ActionsThe FCC has levied a $25,000 fine against the Estate of Steven Silberberg and his thirteen license holding companies for failing to timely file applications for involuntary transfer of control following the passing of Silberberg in January 2021 with his son Jacob Silberberg taking over the controlling shares of the companies. The filings are required to be made within 30 days, but were not made until October 2021.
