FCC Denies Trump's Request to Revoke ABC's Broadcast License

The FCC Chair emphasized the First Amendment in rejecting Trump's call to punish ABC over debate moderation.

Former President Donald Trump demanded ABC's broadcast license be revoked, claiming unfair treatment during a debate with VP Kamala Harris.
Trump criticized ABC moderators David Muir and Linsey Davis for fact-checking him more rigorously than Harris.
FCC Chair Jessica Rosenworcel responded, stating the agency does not revoke licenses due to political disagreements with content.
Rosenworcel's statement was prompted by a request from Senators Ed Markey and Ron Wyden to uphold the First Amendment.
The debate attracted nearly 68 million viewers, but Trump has indicated he will not participate in a second debate.
