NOT FOR ATTRIBUTION:

And at a Federal Communications Bar Lunch just two weeks ago, the new
head of the Enforcement Bureau told us that plugola/payola would only
be investigated in response to specific complaints, and was not a
priority.  It is fair to note that the EB has its hands full, and
can't track down every FCC rule violation out there, but the
plugola/payola thing has been a flagarant breach of FCC rules for
years now.  Either enforce them or get rid of them.
