Alex Jones flagship station fined 15k by the FCC

According to new court documents Alex Jones, flagship radio station Liberty Radio was fined $15,000 by the FCC.

Statesman:

A pirate radio station that serves as controversial host Alex Jones’ Austin flagship has been knocked off the city’s airwaves – at least temporarily – and the Federal Communications Commission has levied a $15,000 penalty that the station’s operators are refusing to pay.

A lawsuit filed this week in U.S. District Court in Austin accuses Liberty Radio of operating at 90.1 FM without federal consent since at least 2013. Religious programming was airing on that frequency Wednesday, in place of Liberty Radio.

A check of the Liberty Radio website, txlr.net, indicated the station stopped being transmitted over the air in December, but has been streaming online and via a call-in “listen line.”

It is quite coincidental that the raid happened immediately after the purge of Alex Jones from Social Media.
