Krauthammer’s Take: FCC Newsroom Study Latest ‘Trample on What Rights are Remaining’

How much more evidence is needed that America has become a banana republic?

National Review reports a proposed FCC study that would send government researchers and monitors into newsrooms to learn why organizations select to cover the stories that they do does not sit well with Charles Krauthammer. He said the government’s stated “critical information need” for such a examination reminds him of something that would take place in Moscow and Kiev.


“As if the IRS, and the EPA, and NLRB haven’t done enough damage, the FCC now has to trample on what rights are remaining,” he said on Thursday’s Special Report.
