Republicans Begin Filing FCC Complaints About Networks Who Falsely Claim Joe Biden is the ‘President-Elect’

Republican activists and concerned citizens have started filing Federal Communications Commission complaints against networks that are falsely referring to Joe Biden as the “president-elect.”

The FCC prohibits broadcasters from intentionally distorting the news.

...

As Maria Viti, one of the members of the “Riot Coverage Crew” leading the effort, tweeted, “the media can make projections for each state but have no legal authority to call a state until the state election results are certified.”

Currently, multiple states are still being contested.

There has been a widespread effort by the media, including Fox News, to cover up widespread claims of voter fraud benefitting Biden.

there is something to this in that Twitter is not flagging Biden tweets but is flagging Trump tweets saying election may not have been called

Media doesn’t get to decide who is President...so BIden should also have the same disclaimer.

That will work only for broadcast stations with licenses—but I like it!

Make sure and hit every single local ABC, CBS, NBC and Fox affiliate—and don’t forget Public Broadcasting.

Rescind PBS’s license nationwide!

“Currently projected winner” would at least be slightly honest.

>>> The FCC prohibits broadcasters from intentionally distorting the news.

REALLY??????

What???

YOU ARE EFFING KIDDING ME!!!

Sorry... I call BS on this!

CANNOT BE TRUE!!!

If that were true, then most if not all of the network news companies would have LOST their FCC licenses DECADES AGO!!!

Someone here trying to tell me that an FCC complaint can be filed against a broadcaster for distorting the news????

C O M E E F F I N G O N MAN!!!

What do they get????

an emmy?

FCC is a USELESS SPINELESS and IMPOTENT waste of taxpayer money if ALL these networks dont get their broadcast licences revoked for what they have pulled this year... and i’m not just talking about election night!

Obama pulled that sh!t, too. He had his cute little sign. There’s no such thing.
