Don’t be fooled: The FCC’s ‘equal-time’ push is almost all bark, no bite

FCC chairman Brendan Carr said Wednesday that a nearly century-old regulation known as the “equal-time rule” is going to apply “across the board.”

Carr also confirmed reports by CNN and other outlets that the FCC opened an investigation into ABC’s “The View” for a possible equal-time violation.

The FCC chair called it an “enforcement action,” which makes it sound serious, even though legal experts say it likely won’t amount to much.
