Dear
@BrendanCarrFCC
: If you implement your flagrantly anti First Amendment actions, you will be sued and you will lose. And legal discovery will be awesome. Because the American people can then find out what the Administration keeps hiding.
Take your fascist shit and shove it.

"The law is clear. Broadcasters must operate in the public interest".
The key words here are "public interest", not Trump's interest. The two are almost always in direct contradiction with each other. You could easily use that argument against reporting in a way that is always favorable to Trump.
Another classic case of stupidity by a Trump sycophant.
