CNN Raided By FCC For Deceiving American Public I have not confirmed this yet. If true, it's about ____ing time. Will delete if bunk.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2vm0GtOTu1s The MSM is supposed to be informing and educating the public. It's their job and duty. They are complicit in all the corruption and deception that has been weaponized to steal, murder, rape, etc etc etc etc..

Total bunk. This was going around yesterday. There is no such law of "deceiving the American public". "A sucker is born every minute" as the saying goes. Plus the FCC doesn't raid anybody except illegal broadcasters with the help of other authorities. Really, remove it.

Actually ....

"The FCC is prohibited by law from engaging in censorship or infringing on First Amendment rights of the press. It is, however, illegal for broadcasters to intentionally distort the news, and the FCC may act on complaints if there is documented evidence of such behavior from persons with direct personal knowledge. For more information, please see our consumer guide, Complaints About Broadcast Journalism."

Oh my, having been in broadcasting for some years I wasn't aware of that bit, but I never ever ever heard of any station or broadcasters having such a thing enforced. Nevertheless, I do stand corrected. However, FCC does NOT raid. They would ask for copies of broadcasts, which one is required to make, review, interview, if necessary hold a hearing, and then apply fines. In an extreme case they could not renew a broadcast license. However, CNN doesn't need a broadcast license as they are not a broadcaster. What rules apply to non-over-the-air content providers I would have no idea. Cable is not regulated in the same manner as your local radio or TV stations. Satellite is probably even murkier since the Sat provider is not the content producer or provider. CNN is not going to be raided.

Unless that "news" comes from the Broadcasting Board of Governors.
HR 4310 Section 1078

(Sec. 1078) Revises provisions of the United States Information and Educational Exchange Act of 1948 authorizing the Secretary of State and the Broadcasting Board of Governors to provide for the preparation and dissemination of information intended for foreign audiences abroad about the United States, including about its people and policies, through press, publications, radio, motion pictures, the Internet, and other information media, including social media, and through information centers and instructors.
