I know this case from grad school, but can't remember it. Could you give us a briefing?

It was an interesting decision. It was based on a stations refusal to present both sides of an issue of public importance.

The station refused to present both sides of a controversial issue. FCC revoked the station license.

The Supreme court upheld the right of the FCC to revoke a stations license.
