ABC refuses to capitulate to Trump admin, fights FCC probe into The View

ABC is pushing back against an FCC probe into whether The View should count under equal-time rules.

The company says the agency is overstepping its authority and threatening First Amendment protections for broadcasters.

ABC is also challenging the FCC’s unusual review of its broadcast licenses, calling it improper pressure over program content.

The case could shape how far the FCC can go in policing speech on talk shows and news programs.
