Speaking Truth to Trump’s FCC
Manage episode 488449449 series 3664640
The Federal Communications Commission, under Trump-appointee Brendan Carr, is acting less like a watchdog and more like an attack dog. Host Cristian Farias talks to Katie Fallow, the Institute’s deputy director of litigation, about the FCC’s efforts to punish broadcasters for airing content the Trump administration doesn’t like. FCC Commissioner Anna Gomez speaks to the importance of an independent regulator unburdened by its leaders’ political objectives, and how the ongoing investigations threaten press freedom.
