FCC Chair Threatens Media: Fall In Line With Trump, Or Lose Broadcasting Licenses

[onenote]

25. Carr is considered an incompetent doofus by most communications attorneys

Sure he has he head planted firmly up Trump's ass. And sure he is an absolute enemy of free speech. But he's also a moron.

First, by attaching Trump's complaint about NEWSPAPER reporting to his tweet, Carr basically undermines his own argument. It's not a hoax for a tv station to report on what a newspaper -- the WSJ or the NYT for example -- has reported.

Second, Carr seems to be unaware -- or thinks somehow he can scare the big broadcasters with his threat. But the biggest drop owners, such as Sinclair, as well as CBS under its current management, are total suck ups for Trump. And the licenses for the most valuable licenses held by ABC and NBC -- their owned and operated station in NYC, Los Angeles, Chicago, San Francisco, Boston, etc. -- don't come up for renewal until December 2029, December 2030, or December 2031.

Doofus.
