Default Is this legal-- Emmis vetoes a competitor's format change

Radio & Records reports that KXOL in Los Angeles wanted to changed it's
Spanish AC to a more pop presentation. But Emmis-- who owns their tower--
put in the lease contract they can veto programming they feel will hurt
their stations-- in this case Power 106.

Doesn't the FCC frown on one station controlling the programming of another.
Or did that go by the wayside with dereg?
