Disney and ABC are suing the Trump administration, accusing it of government censorship and retaliation for airing content the White House dislikes. The FCC demanded early license renewals — an unprecedented move in over 50 years — forcing Disney to rush applications in just 30 days. FCC Chairman Brendan Carr defends the move as a public interest requirement, not payback, and notes broadcasters can switch to streaming or podcasts if they don’t comply. The push stems from Trump’s public calls to terminate ABC’s licenses, which Disney claims is part of a targeted campaign. They’re seeking a speedy hearing and injunction to halt the process, framing it as a battle for free speech against executive overreach.
