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 quotation from Henry Commager
The Bill of Rights was not written into the Constitution in order to protect governments from “trouble,” but so that the people might have a legitimate method of causing trouble to governments they no longer trusted.
Henry Steele Commager (1902-1998) American historian, writer, activist
Letter (1971-06-17) to the Editor, New York TimesMore about this quote: wist.info/commager-henry-steel…

#SCOTUS rebuffs #AlanDershowitz $300 million suit against #CNN
The Supreme Court refused Monday to revive the attorney’s #defamation lawsuit against CNN over its coverage of remarks he made while defending #Trump during his 2020 #impeachment.
Justices Neil #Gorsuch & #ClarenceThomas dissented from the majority decision, saying legal standards for public figures who claim defamation should be reconsidered.

A quotation from Henry Commager
Who are those who are really disloyal? Those who inflame racial hatreds, who sow religious and class dissensions. Those who subvert the Constitution by violating the freedom of the ballot box. Those who make a mockery of majority rule by the use of the filibuster. Those who impair democracy by denying equal educational facilities. Those who frustrate justice by lynch law or by making a farce of jury trials. Those who deny freedom of speech and of the press and of assembly. Those who press for special favors against the interest of the commonwealth. Those who regard public office as a source of private gain. Those who would exalt the military over the civil. Those who for selfish and private purposes stir up national antagonisms and expose the world to the ruin of war.
Henry Steele Commager (1902-1998) American historian, writer, activist

“#Congress mandated #VOA to report reliable & authoritative news, not to outsource its #journalism to outlets aligned w/the president’s agenda,” they wrote in a stmnt. “VOA already has talented & professional #journalists ready to tell America’s story in line w/the VOA Charter, but we are blocked from our own newsroom. That is why we will continue fighting for our rights in court.”

Many of the names & keywords he included in his request reflect #ConspiracyTheories & #grievances promoted by Revolver News—which Beattie founded after being fired from his job as a speechwriter during the first #Trump admin when CNN reported that he had spoken at a conference with #WhiteNationalists.
