Disney Sues FCC Over Free Speech | Tucson News

from Tucson News Today | 2 Min Now | The Daily News Now!

Disney’s suing the FCC, claiming federal regulators are targeting their First Amendment rights — a move sparked by an early license review of ABC stations (owned by Disney) tied to controversial remarks by Jimmy Kimmel that angered President Trump. FCC Chairman Brendan Carr argues broadcasters must serve the public interest, citing declining media trust, while Disney accuses the agency of censorship and political retaliation. This high-stakes legal showdown could reshape how media and government interact — and what free speech means in broadcast TV.
