🚨🚨
This is a sweeping and dangerous attempt by the left to weaponize the FCC against conservative broadcasters and politicians.

And it is a clear signal of the agenda the left will pursue if they regain control of the FCC --> censoring speech that does not fit their orthodoxy. https://twitter.com/MZHemingway/status/1245757734068379650
2. "broadcast hoax" - that's what this left wing group calls the airing of the President's Coronovirus Task Force Briefings.

They call on the FCC to "rein in" broadcasters that DO air the briefing by investigating them.

I stand with the First Amendment and strongly oppose this.
3. This left wing group is the same one that pressed for greater government control of the Internet through so-called "net neutrality" rules before it became Democrat orthodoxy.

They got Obama to force the FCC to enact that one.

They're telling you their next move.
4. NEW: We denied the petition flagged by @MZHemingway, which asked @FCC to take action against broadcasters that air the President’s coronavirus briefings + more.

Good free speech win, though it won’t be the left’s last attempt to weaponize the FCC against conservative voices
