Senate Democrats Slam Brendan Carr for Weaponizing FCC Against ABC, Jimmy Kimmel and Free Speech in Open Letter

Senate Democrats slammed Federal Communications Chairman Brendan Carr in an open letter on Thursday, arguing he is weaponizing the FCC in "Trump's interest." The letter was published one day after Carr threatened ABC and the Disney-owned network suspended late night host Jimmy Kimmel over comments he made about Charlie Kirk's alleged shooter. Senators Edward J. Markey, Chuck Schumer, Amy Klobuchar, Maria Cantwell and Ben Ray Luján were among the 11 politicians calling for Carr to explain his statements against ABC and Kimmel that set in motion the "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" broadcast . . .
