Also, since this is what company telling another what they can do with

law, forget the FCC regulations?

I would bet there would be fewer civil laws that would apply than FCC
regulations. KXOL knew what they were signing when they agreed to the
contract terms. Supposing KXOL's lease was up and another company
needed DTV antenna space. Why would this be any different than a
landlord leasing space to another tenant. What if Emmis decided to
triple the rent at the end of the lease? Would they be required to
keep SBS as a tenant even if they refused the new terms?
