Question 25 As a prank, an announcer for WWCU FM 90.5 stated that scientists have just discovered that a giant asteroid is hurtling through space on a collision course with Earth. He stated that the asteroid will hit the eastern seaboard of the United States with deadly effect in approximately six months. The announcer stated that although scientists predict total devastation of the eastern seaboard, Australia should be a relatively safe place to be and presents the highest possibility of survival post-impact. The announcer also stated that scientists are advising those who can to relocate to Australia before the asteroid hits. About a half dozen members of the audience contacted real estate agents to place their homes on the market, quit their jobs, and purchased plane tickets to Australia as a result of the broadcast. The broadcast was totally false, and the announcer knew that it was false. Because the announcer knowingly made a false broadcast and some people believed it and acted to their detriment, the FCC will most liker impose a forfeiture on WWCU 90.5 for broadcasting a hoax pursuant to 4? C.F.R. 73.1217. True False I!" f!"
