Open Letter to FCC Regarding GM Payola

Ms. Kris Monteith,
Bureau Chief,
Enforcement Bureau, Investigations & Hearings Division,
Federal Communications Commission (FCC),
445 12th Street, SW, Room 4-C330
Washington, DC 20554

August 17, 2007

Dear Ms. Monteith:

I am writing to ask that Federal Communications Commission (FCC) conduct an investigation of the activities of certain hosts of radio shows. (See Appendix One — a list of radio hosts participating in the General Motors promotion effort).

On August 6, 2007, Automotive News, the leading trade journal for the automotive industry, reported that GM is wooing radio stars. Its article led with a headline: “Puff Piece. Rush Limbaugh is one of the radio personalities GM is working with to talk up its vehicles.” (See Appendix Two — Automotive News article: General Motors Payola GM woos the radio stars Rush, Whoopi and others plug vehicles on the air, by Mary Connelly.)

Automotive News Reporter Mary Connelly writes that “GM says it doesn’t pay the stars directly for their endorsements, although it advertises on their shows. It gives them new GM cars and trucks to drive for two weeks each month. The company also invites the celebrities to Detroit for private meetings with top executives and VIP tours of GM facilities. The attention is paying off.”

The article notes that Rush Limbaugh said, “GM has a ton of momentum,” he exhaled, “GM cars and trucks have never been better.”

But Rush Limbaugh doesn’t stop there. He waxes further: “They [GM] are working hard and they are thinking smart. Believe in General Motors, folks.” (See Appendix Three — list of stations carrying the Rush Limbaugh Show.)

Dallas disc jockey Chris Ryan, might as well have been crossing over to his advertising buddies and doing the ad. But this was not ad time. This was program time when he declared: “Have you seen all the cool things that’s going on at GM? I have. If you’re thinking about a new car, you got to look at GM.”

Section 47 U.S.C. § 317, requires broadcasters to disclose to their listeners or viewers if matter has been aired in exchange for money, services or other valuable consideration.

Section 47 U.S.C. § 508, requires that, when anyone provides or promises to provide money, services or other consideration to someone to include program matter in a broadcast, that fact must be disclosed in advance of the broadcast, ultimately to the station over which the matter is to be aired.

Based on this article, it appears that content of the broadcasts may violate the sponsorship identification rules.

In any event, the FCC needs to investigate. Secretary of Commerce, Herbert Hoover, later to become President in the nineteen twenties, called radio “a public trust.” He believed the public airwaves, being owned by the people, should convey no advertisements whatsoever.

I look forward to your response.

Sincerely,

Ralph Nader

General Motors Payola
GM woos the radio stars
Rush, Whoopi and others plug vehicles on the air

By Mary Connelly

(Detroit) General Motors is recruiting many of America’s best known radio personalities – including Rush Limbaugh, Bill O’Reilly, Laura Schlessinger and Whoopi Goldberg – to talk up its vehicles on the air.

GM says it doesn’t pay the stars directly for their endorsements, although it advertises on their shows. It gives them new GM cars and trucks to drive for two weeks each month. The company also invites the celebrities to Detroit for private meetings with top executives and VIP tours of GM facilities.

The attention is paying off. One day last month, for example, Limbaugh – who has the largest audience in talk radio – told his listeners that “GM cars and trucks have never been better.

“GM has a ton of momentum,” Limbaugh enthused. “They are working hard and they are thinking smart. Believe in General Motors, folks. They’re a classic American company doing it all.”

A Dallas disc jockey named Atom Smasher told his listeners: “I am driving around in this Cadillac, and I am not going to want to give it back – the Cadillac SRX. Named best luxury SUV three years in a row. And do they look good blinged-out. To all of the guys at GM: Good job.”

Said another Dallas DJ, Chris Ryan: “Have you seen all the cool things that’s going on at GM? I have. If you’re thinking about a new car, you got to look to GM.”

‘Emotional connection’

Sam Mancuso, GM’s director of brand marketing alliances and operations, said the company initiated contacts this spring with 17 national radio hosts, as well as dozens of local personalities in cities such as Dallas and Los Angeles.

Mancuso said he and Betsy Lazar, GM executive director of advertising and media operations, have done much of the wooing.

“Radio personalities have unique relationships with their listeners,” Mancuso told Automotive News. “They make a real emotional connection. The audience knows they are being genuine.

“We said, ‘Let’s provide them with information about the vehicles and let them engage and discuss.’ And that is what they are doing. When they come out here and get to meet with us, their eyes open wide. They are so excited about the product.”

GM’s monitoring confirms that the personalities are talking about the company’s vehicles on their programs, Mancuso said. But he insisted that GM does not give any of them a script.

“They are not required to mention GM,” he said. “Do they mention the product? Yes. Do they mention GM? Some yes, some no.”

Limbaugh and both Dallas radio hosts said in their spiels that GM has “24 models that get an EPA-estimated 30 miles per gallon or more on the highway.” They used the words “more than any other manufacturer.” And they all cited E85 flex-fuel vehicles and the Saturn Aura Green Line in discussing GM’s environmental initiatives.

Mancuso would not say how much GM spends to advertise on the hosts’ radio shows.

Limbaugh visited GM headquarters in early May, Mancuso said. He met with Vice Chairman Bob Lutz and design chief Ed Welburn and toured the company’s design center.

Right and left

Mancuso said the radio hosts whom GM works with fall along a broad spectrum of political opinions. The list includes conservative commentators such as Limbaugh, O’Reilly, Schlessinger, Sean Hannity and Glenn Beck. But it also includes liberals such as Bill Press and Ed Schultz.

Other personalities, such as Goldberg, Ryan Seacrest and John Tesh, host essentially apolitical entertainment and music-oriented programs. Jim Rome hosts a daily sports talk show. Other local and national personalities host shows aimed at black and Hispanic audiences.

“There is no political agenda here,” Mancuso said. “We don’t associate ourselves with what (the hosts’) beliefs are.”

Several of the celebrities appear on TV as well as radio. O’Reilly and Hannity host nightly programs on Fox News Channel. Beck is a host on CNN Headline News and contributes to ABC’s “Good Morning America.” Seacrest hosts Fox’s “American Idol” – which is sponsored by Ford Motor Co.

While the personalities may also discuss their GM experiences on TV, Mancuso said, the company is “not involved in that.”
