So the FCC chair is threatening networks that broadcast unfavorable news

[BlindBoo]

They aren’t in the jurisdiction since they aren’t a broadcast network

"so they can, and do, air distorted news and outright lies to millions."

Like Rabid Radio does, and Faux Affiliates do. Did Clinton, Obama, or Biden theaten Faux affiliates with revocations for fake news that echoed the Faux Not News lies and decptions.

 

[Lesh]

Not if they were distorting the news

You have no right to a broadcast license

Hey dipshit. You have to show intentional distortion.

Differences of opinion and errors are not actionable

He called news that said 5 US air tankers were struck during a Iranian drone attack "fake news" and threatened the various station's broadcast licenses.

This in spite of the fact the mod edit "tRump" violates the clean start policy Trump himself had already acknowledged this as factual even though he took pains to minimize the damage.

Any of you Trumplings gonna defend their first amendment rights?

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

FCC Chair Brendan Carr blasted broadcasters shortly after President Donald Trump called reports that Iran struck five U.S. tanker planes "fake news."

None of those actually distorted the news

But it was against the law then too to distort the news

Why did I say it was???

 

[jknowgood]

Nobody is "making up news". Trump has always hated the media for telling the American people the truth about him.

It is the Constitutional duty of reporters to report the facts to the American people, not the bullshit and propaganda being put out by the dishonest lying felon you clowns elected.

The world is watching Weather, whether YOU like it or not, and it's not the MSM that's lying to them.

Lol, one thing. Russian collision.

I’m trying to follow this thread..

So according to Trump minions Trump is threatening FCC Licenses for local affiliates over only what those affiliates have broadcasted as fact?

I think that’s what inaccurate

Anyone?

 

[BlindBoo]

The Wall Street Journal has no broadcast license to revoke.

Trumpybear strikes out again.

The law does not allow broadcast networks from distorting the news

Trumps not the one that created the law, so it’s not really him threatening anyone

He simply had been elected to enforce the law

The story originated in print media.

It’s not a defense to distort news to claim someone else did it too

The story the OP posted was about "5 US air tankers were struck during a Iranian drone attack". That's what soiled Baby Donnies diapers.

All they have to say is something like "As reported by the Wall Street Journal......" to cover their asses.

But even then any revocation attempt would be met by law suits. Law suits mean discovery.....hence another legal failure for Benedict Donald. But it does bring out the poutage amongst his sycophants.

Did they? Nope

What’s the legal failure? Discovery? Why?

Wrong of course
If you distort then you did it and it’s intentional . That pesky responsibility thing you abhor

again...this is only about what is shown on local affiliates?

Not cable?

 

[struth]

Broadcast networks…yes

So it could be local affiliates, or AbC News, or 60 Mins, or Jimmy Kimmel show
Only broadcast networks not cable

Educate yourself

 

[WEATHER53]

Broadcast networks…yes

Only broadcast networks not cable

Educate yourself

Those who don’t think can’t acquire education

 

[Papageorgio]

Sorry, Fox TV

Fox Broadcast doesn’t have news, NBC and

I only care when the government uses force to suppress speech.

Your use of the term “pressure” is absurdly broad and includes merely attempting to persuade people on what they should and shouldn’t say.

Pressure is being applied no one has been forced to do anything.

 

[Marener]

Pressure is being applied no one has been forced to do anything.

Threats of force is the same as force.

Carr is threatening government force. The same can’t be said about other administrations.
