WASHINGTON, D.C. – In response to today's announcement by FCC Chairman Julius Genachowski that he will leave the Commission, the following quote can be attributed to NAB President and CEO Gordon Smith:
"NAB salutes Chairman Genachowski for his years of service at the FCC. The FCC chair is arguably one of the most difficult jobs in Washington, and yet Julius consistently performed with dedication and focus. We may have disagreed on occasion, but America's broadcasters wish him well in his journeys ahead."
