Federal Communications Commission Chair Jessica Rosenworcel on Thursday responded to former President Donald Trump's recent calls to revoke the broadcast licenses of major media outlets, calling them "threats against free speech."
Her comments came after Trump called out CBS for editing a "60 Minutes" interview with Vice President Kamala Harris to "make her look better." In a post on his Truth Social platform Thursday, Trump called the incident "A Giant Fake News Scam."
Trump wrote, "60 Minutes is a major part of the News Organization of CBS, which has just created the Greatest Fraud in Broadcast History. CBS should lose its license, and it should be bid out to the Highest Bidder, as should all other Broadcast Licenses, because they are just as corrupt as CBS - and maybe even WORSE!"
