Overview
The FCC has reinstated complaints against ABC, CBS, and NBC concerning biased coverage of the 2020 presidential election, particularly regarding Kamala Harris and Donald Trump. Originally filed by the Center for American Rights, criticisms include ABC's fact-checking, NBC's equal time violation during a 'SNL' appearance, and CBS's alleged deceptive editing. The complaints were previously dismissed by outgoing chair Jessica Rosenworcel, who stated it contravened First Amendment rights. Newly appointed chair Brendan Carr has reversed this decision, promising impartial review despite criticisms regarding political motivations.
