AllSides Media Bias Rating: Center
The Trump Administration again criticized the media on Saturday over its war coverage. Federal Communications Commission chair Brendan Carr took to social media Saturday evening threatening to revoke FCC licenses.
"Broadcasters that are running hoaxes and news distortions — also known as the fake news — have a chance now to correct course before their license renewals come up. The law is clear. Broadcasters must operate in the public interest, and they will lose their licenses if they do not," he posted.
