President Trump called for the FCC to revoke ABC and NBC broadcast licenses after they declined to air his prime-time speech; FCC Commissioner Anna Gomez stated the demand is unconstitutional, citing First Amendment protections for editorial decisions and the FCC's lack of authority to punish broadcasters for content choices. If you own or operate a broadcast network, your licence is now a political pressure point, not just a regulatory compliance asset. The FCC's response matters more than Trump's threat—watch whether the Republican majority moves to tighten content rules under the guise of 'public interest', because that reframes what you can broadcast without legal risk.
