The #FCC has limited power over issues like this, & its own website states the agency “cannot prevent the broadcast of any particular point of view,” so the notion of “punishment” for #KristenWelker, the moderator of #NBC’s “Meet the Press,” would historically [& legally] be a nonstarter.
But #BrendanCarr has been quick to respond to #Trump’s requests to go after #media organizations. And he has taken aggressive action against some #FCC licensees…
-
The posts were Trump’s most explicit efforts yet to direct the #FCC to carry out his wishes. FCC Chair #BrendanCarr, a Trump appointee & close ally, did not respond to request for comment.
#Trump posted a long missive Sunday about what he described as mischaracterizations of his endorsement record in primaries.

Republicans Stumble In Bid To Flood Midterm Airwaves With Discounted Ads

The #FCC, led by its chairman, #BrendanCarr, called for an unusual, early review of the broadcast licenses last spring, citing ABC’s internal diversity & inclusion practices. None of the #ABC licenses, which have terms of 8 years, were up for renewal yet. Carr’s decision came after the ABC late-night host, #JimmyKimmel, angered #Trump with a monologue joke.

A #SpaceMirror Will Test Turning Night Into Day. What To Know About the Controversial Project
by Jeffrey Kluger, Jul 14, 2026
Excerpt: "The company envisions multiple uses for sun-reflecting satellites: assisting search and rescue operations, allowing construction projects to operate around the clock, charging solar power stations, increasing crop yield. But critics cite all manner of risks. Human and animal #CircadianRhythms could be badly affected if the sun—or a simulacrum of it—never sets. The practice of changing the clocks by a mere hour twice a year is already known to mess with human sleep-wake cycles, after all. Plants could bloom when they shouldn’t and die before their time. Orbital mirrors flashing and winking back to Earth could distract airline pilots. Finally, #LightPollution is already interfering with astronomical observations—a problem made even worse by satellite constellations like #SpaceX’s 10,000-strong #Starlink fleet. #ReflectOrbital’s 50,000 birds would dwarf even that."

Weekly output: next-gen philanthropy, new FCC priorities
If you’re reading this somewhere around the greater Washington area and a) want to say hi in person and b) want to come home with some of the tech-event swag I’ve accumulated over the last two years, head out to Fairfax Saturday afternoon for the joint meeting of the Potomac Area Technology and Computer Society, Washington Apple Pi, and the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute’s Personal Computer User Group. The event starts at 1 p.m., and my talk unpacking 2025’s tech plot twists begins at 2 p.m.
5/6/2025: Millennials Are Shifting What Counts as Philanthropy, Worth
I wrote my first piece for this publication in more than a year. I shouldn’t have taken that long, but it seems I needed to run into one of Worth’s editors at an AI conference in Vegas to renew those ties.
5/7/2025: In Setting Priorities, New FCC Chair Happy to Be ‘Moving on Trump Time’, PCMag
I spent Tuesday afternoon at the wireless-industry trade group CTIA’s conference in D.C. and decided that FCC chairman Brendan Carr’s friendly conversation with CTIA CEO and president (and former FCC chair) Ajit Pai was the newsiest bit for PCMag readers.
5/12/2025: Updated this post to add a mention of the other host of Saturday’s event, the longstanding Apple users group Washington Apple Pi.
