Why would he stop? There’s no consequences for this administration’s actions.

We’re at the point in history where we ARE gonna have to do some wrongs to make things right. The sooner everyone realizes that the fewer corrective wrongs will be necessary.

He’s here to protect local tv stations. Like the tiny little helpless billion dollar companies, Nexstar and Sinclair. Small fish in the big pond.

Driven by the belief that liberal tech and media companies have unfairly silenced viewpoints on the right, Mr. Carr is working to transform the F.C.C. from a once sleepy agency best known for licensing local TV stations and expanding 5G cellular networks into a protector of conservative speech.

If he were protecting conservative speech as opposed to silencing liberal speech we’d be having a whole different discussion

Conservative speech is nothing more than victimization and hate speech.
