ABC stations call FCC’s early call for license renewal ‘unconstitutional’ - AP News
Overview
ABC-owned local television stations across the country sharply criticized the Federal Communications Commission for launching an early review of their broadcast licenses, calling the action unlawful, arbitrary and unconstitutional. WABC in New York led the public denunciations, accusing the FCC of targeting the stations. The dispute follows an earlier FCC order for early renewals and amplifies a broader legal and free-speech fight between ABC/Disney and regulators that is likely to prompt protracted litigation.
