Show Notes
President Trump intensifies criticism of media coverage of the U.S.-Israeli war with Iran, while FCC Chairman Brendan Carr warns broadcasters of license revocation for biased reporting. Trump accuses outlets like The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal of rooting for U.S. defeat. Carr, a Trump appointee, urges broadcasters to correct course or face license loss. Democrats condemn the threats as attacks on press freedom. The FCC oversees licenses for broadcast TV and radio networks, but not cable channels or online news sites. Trump has a history of targeting media for critical stories, and Carr has aligned with him, praising deals and resharing calls for changes in on-air talent. The agency is also investigating shows like ABCs The View for equal time violations. The war escalates with Iran reporting hundreds of civilian deaths and Israel counting its own casualties. Trump threatens further strikes on Irans oil hub and rules out an imminent deal.
