ABC Accuses Trump Admin of First Amendment Violations

ABC is filing a lawsuit against the Trump administration, alleging that the FCC's recent policy shifts violate its First Amendment rights and chill free speech. The network is specifically seeking affirmation of its long-standing approach to the 'bona fide news interview exemption' for its show 'The View.' ABC argues that the FCC's actions suggest a significant departure from established practices, necessitating intervention from the full Commission and judicial oversight to protect broadcast stations' public interest services.
