Donald Trump has nominated Brendan Carr, a proponent of free speech, as the new Chairman of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). Carr, endorsed by the Media Research Center, has indicated a strong stance against what he describes as a 'censorship cartel' within Big Tech. He has articulated that broadcast licenses should not be considered permanent entitlements, emphasizing that they are privileges contingent upon accountability to the public. His appointment signals a potential shift in regulatory focus, with Carr threatening to revoke licenses from media outlets he deems as part of the 'Regime Media'. This nomination could lead to significant changes in how broadcast media is regulated in the United States.
