FCC chairman says the agency is investigating 'The View' over equal time rule
- On Feb. 2, the FCC opened an investigation into ABC's 'The View' for possible equal-time violations after James Talarico appeared, with Chairman Brendan Carr saying, `The FCC has an enforcement action underway on that.`
- In January, the FCC issued new guidance to late-night and daytime hosts requiring equal time for political candidates and questioned whether the talk-show exemption still qualifies as a bona fide news exemption.
- Colbert later posted the interview with James Talarico to YouTube, where it has been viewed more than 7.5 million times after CBS executives pulled it over equal-time concerns.
- A spokesperson for 'The View' on Thursday declined to comment, while the FCC chair Brendan Carr confirmed enforcement proceedings and said, `The FCC has an enforcement action underway on that.`
- The FCC public notice last month said it had no evidence that talk show interviews meet the bona fide news exemption, and Carr's review may reshape how broadcasters book candidates like U.S. Rep. Jasmine Crockett.
