ABC is taking to the airwaves to warn viewers of the FCC‘s crackdown on The View and the agency’s unusual demand that the network’s stations seek early renewal of their broadcast licenses.
The spots, which will start airing on Monday, are the latest pushback from The Walt Disney Co. and the network, which says that the actions of the FCC under its Trump-appointed chairman, Brendan Carr, are chilling free speech.
The spots also urge viewers to file comments with the FCC, as deadlines near for public input as part of the agency’s proceedings.
