A Firehose of Lies
Democratic Federal Communications Commissioner Anna Gomez on the attempt to weaponize the FCC under FCC Chair and Project 2025 contributor Brendon Carr: "I never thought I’d see this agency so willingly cede its independence to this administration and allow itself to be turned into an instrument of censorship and political retaliation. We are meant to be an independent, stable, expert-driven regulatory body, not a tool to settle personal grievances."
On extortion as political retribution of media companies such as CBS/Paramount and ABC/Disney: "What this FCC did was revive those baseless complaints as a justification to retaliate against broadcasters whose content or coverage is perceived to be unfavorable by this Administration. Their goal is to instill fear in broadcast stations and to influence a network’s editorial decisions. That is, of course, a blatant violation of the First Amendment and an attack on press freedom."
