Gary:
The term may be defined in the U.S. Code section that authorizes the FCC
to set these regulations.  You should be able to find the appropriate
code citation somewhere in the CFR.

Subject: [RM] Common Carriers

I have been reading the FCC Regs, Title 47 of the CFR's, and have found
records requirements for "Common Carriers." However, I cannot find
anything in the regs that says what a Common Carrier is. Is it a phone
company only? Or does it also apply to radio stations and television
stations. Generally in a CFR there is a section for "Definitions," but I
can find no such definition in Title 47 for "Common Carrier." 

I did a Google search on Common Carrier, but most of the definitions
discuss transportation-related entities.

Does anyone on the list know if TV and radio stations are included in
the term Common Carriers?

Thanks,
Gary
