ABC fights back against FCC regulators in dispute over ‘The View’ and equal time rules
ABC is contesting the Federal Communications Commission's (FCC) review of whether 'The View' qualifies as a news program exempt from equal time rules. The network argues a 2002 FCC decision already resolved this, and the Trump administration's involvement is seen as an attempt to suppress free speech. The dispute has broader implications for shows blending politics and entertainment.
