Kefauver influence questioned in Miami TV license case
Former Miami mayor testified that he learned from FCC Commissioner Richard A. Mack that Katzentine’s license would be denied due to “too much Kefauver in this situation” while Katzentine sought WKAT and later Channel 10 for National Airlines. The House subcommittee weighs political pressure and staff reversals amid Katzentine, Mack, Whiteside, and Katzentine’s testimony.
