ABC says FCC seeks to intimidate network over news coverage

ABC said the FCC's early, years-ahead-of-schedule review of the broadcast licenses for its eight Disney-owned stations, ordered by Chair Brendan Carr and tied to a probe into Disney's diversity policies, is "a signal to every media company in the country" to accommodate the administration's preferred coverage or pay the price; the FCC is separately investigating whether "The View" violates equal-time rules for political candidates.
