Meh...his ratings were already way down, and then he lies on national television that the Kirk assassin was MAGA.

@BizSuitStacy if the FCC put pressure to fire him that’s a big anti-american story on its own without even considering if his ratings were anything or if ABC reacted
@TradEmily and how, exactly, does a gov't agency (FCC) influence or pressure ABC's corporate HR policies?

Trump suggests FCC should consider revoking TV licenses over negative coverage of him

USA TODAY


WASHINGTON ‒ President Donald Trump said overwhelming negative coverage of him by television networks should be grounds for the Federal Communications Commission to revoke broadcast licenses.

Trump made the suggestion as he defended FCC chairman Brendan Carr for pressuring ABC to pull comedian Jimmy Kimmel's late-night show off the airwaves over comments Kimmel made regarding the fatal shooting of conservative activist Charlie Kirk. Kimmel was suspended indefinitely.

“They're 97% against ‒ they give me only bad publicity or press," Trump claimed in a Sept. 18 gaggle with reporters aboard Air Force One as he flew back to the United States from the United Kingdom. "I mean, they’re getting a license. I would think maybe their license should be taken away. It will be up to Brendan Carr.”
