New, Trump-appointed FCC chair will reinstate complaints about ABC, NBC and CBS election coverage
The source told Newsmax that Carr will put the ABC, NBC and CBS cases, related to 2024 election coverage.
The new chairperson of the Federal Communications Commission will reportedly reverse a decision by the agency's former Democrat chairman to reject three complaints against major media outlets.
The decision by new chairperson, President Donald Trump appointee Brendan Carr, is being reported by Newsmax, based on sources.
With days left in her term under the Biden administration, Chairperson Jessica Rosenworcel, a Democrat, last week announced she would dismiss four pending petitions and complaints before the agency that she thought attempted "to curtail freedom of the press."
Carr will reverse the dismissal of presidential election complaints against ABC, NBC and CBS, but not the one against Fox.
The source told Newsmax that Carr will put the ABC, NBC and CBS cases, related to 2024 election coverage, back into pending or active status but the one against the Fox News Channel will not be reinstated.
