My position is... That one is a yes or no. Do you have jurisdiction or not? We have jurisdiction with respect to the broadcast airwaves uniquely to ensure that their operations are in the public interest. So if there's a determination by the Federal Communications Commission that satire is not in the public interest, you believe you have the authority to revoke
the license of the broadcaster. That's not my position at all. My position is if the use of the facilities is in the public interest. Then let me clarify the question. Satire that's not broadcast hoax, that's not news distortion policy, is perfectly fine. But I also don't understand the conversation about what satire are we talking about? Where was there satire? We're not doing the questions in this direction. Okay.
VielÀ yksityiskohtaisempaa hÀnestÀ myös. Katsotaan tÀmÀn videon.
My job is to implement the law passed by Congress. And Congress has said that broadcast is fundamentally different, that there's a public interest standard. Do you think there are any conservative commentators or conservative comedians or conservative satirists that ever say anything offensive that you would consider investigating?
I'm not looking at things that are offensive or awful, to use your words. I'm looking at things that are consistent with our public interest rules and regulations. That's the full scope. And in what way... So I'm a little confused because it seems to me that in subsequent conversations, I forgot after Ted...
Ja John Thune ja Dave McCormack ja muut sanoivat, ettÀ tÀmÀ nÀyttÀÀ hieman paljon sinulle, puheenjohtaja. EttÀ sinÀ menit ulos ja sanoit, ettÀ se oli vahvaa uutta. En tehnyt sitÀ. TÀmÀ on vahvaa uutta. En tehdÀ sitÀ. En menetÀ Jimmy Kimmelin jÀlkeen. Ja nyt sanoit, ettÀ sinulla on periaatteellinen oikeus mennÀ Jimmy Kimmelin jÀlkeen. Ja minÀ kysyn, mikÀ se on? No, kaksi eri asiaa. Demokraatit aiemmin sanoivat, ettÀ me vahvistamme, ettÀ Jimmy Kimmelin lainsÀÀdÀntö ei ole vahvistettu. Se ei koskaan tapahtunut.
Se ei ollut mitÀÀn muuta kuin demokraattilaisen nÀkökulmasta. Se, mitÀ sanon, on se, ettÀ jokainen broadcaster, joka kÀyttÀÀ ÀÀniÀ, joko radioa tai TViÀ, tÀytyy omistaa yksityiskohtaisuuteen. LisenssejÀ eivÀt ole vihreÀmpiÀ. KyllÀ, voit tehdÀ asioita, jotta voit pysyÀ lisenssejÀ. Mutta jos haluamme muuttaa sen, sen tÀytyy tehdÀ kongressiin. Yksi idea on, miksi emme laittaa kaikki broadcaster-tv-lisenssejÀ auki.
If people want to buy them without the public interest obligation, they can do that. But look, there was a bargain here. You're kind of tiptoeing through the tulips here, right? Because what you actually said is, they have a license granted by us at the FCC that comes with an obligation to operate in the public interest. We can do this the easy way or the hard way. These companies can find ways to change conduct and take action, frankly, on Kimmel, on Kimmel,
or there's going to be additional work for the FCC ahead. Chairman, my final comment is I have actually enjoyed our relationship. I have praised you behind your back as a solid, someone I disagree with, but solid, knowledgeable person. This stuff, at least up until the last year, has been out of character, and it will not age well. And it will not age well on the conservative side of the aisle and the liberal side of the aisle. This is not American FCC behavior.
Ja toivon, ettÀ voimme rekalibroida. Haluaisin ymmÀrtÀÀ, oliko sinulla ongelma, kun Marki kertoi SZT, ettÀ tutustuisi Sinclaireille? Oliko sillÀ jotain ongelmaa? Voin antaa tÀmÀn, koska olin vaikea sinulle. Olet kysynyt minulle kysymyksen. Se on ensimmÀinen kertomus, jossa olen vastannut kysymykseen yksilöstÀ. En onnistunut kirjoittamaan sen.
It's called the Holiday Credit Dip, and it hits millions of people every year, and most don't see it coming. The holidays roll in, you swipe your credit card a few extra times, your balance goes up, and your credit score drops. That's where Smart Credit comes in. Smart Credit helps you stop the dip before it happens.
HeidÀn Patent-teknologianne tarkoittaa, millaisia palkkoja tarvitaan ja kun, jotta voidaan maksimoida kredittien nÀkökulma. YleensÀ Smart Credit-kÀyttÀjÀt voivat nÀhdÀ 34 pointtia vain 30 pÀivÀÀ aikana. Maksimoida nyt sinun nÀkökulmaasi, ja voit saavuttaa paljon uudelleen. Joten, kun olet ylöspÀivÀllÀ loppupuolella, aseta itseÀsi Smart Credit-kredittiin, joka on edelleen suurimpana taloudellinen vuosi.

And you have Democratic Senator Marky grilling Brandon Carr about whether he regrets his tweet about Jimmy Kimmel. Here, play this clip.
Chairman Carr, you are not reinvigorating the public interest standard. You are weaponizing the public interest standard. That is what the Carr FCC is doing every single day. Behind me are your past tweets declaring your commitment to the First Amendment.
You even defended political satire, saying in 2022 it challenges those in power. And that's why people in influential positions have always targeted it for censorship. That's why your threats against ABC and Disney over Jimmy Kimmel's political monologue were so outrageous. And here's what you said.
In September of 2025, as the chairman of the FCC, we can do this the easy way or the hard way. These companies can find ways to change conduct or take action, frankly, on Kimmel, or there's going to be additional work for the FCC ahead. Now, that statement was roundly condemned across the political spectrum. Chairman Cruz called it dangerous as hell. Chairman Carr, do you regret making that statement, yes or no?
Sena Markki, kiitos kysymyksestÀni. Minun tehtÀvÀni on edistÀÀ lainsÀÀdÀntöÀ, joka sisÀltyy jÀrjestelmÀÀn, joka sisÀltyy jÀrjestelmÀÀn, joka sisÀltyy jÀrjestelmÀÀn, joka sisÀltyy jÀrjestelmÀÀn.
My job is to enforce the law. So you don't regret making that statement. Well, that's a refusal to take accountability for your language, for your use, your abuse of power. You will not say that you made a mistake.
Esimerkiksi demokraattinen senaattori Klobuchar menee tehtÀvÀksi kÀsitellÀÀn Brendan Carr ja hÀn osoittaa, ettÀ onko se mielenkiintoista, ettÀ ainoa netto, jota et kÀsittele nyt, on Fox? Eikö se ole oikein? Katsotaan.
Yes, Senator. And whenever that satire or any other programming is over the public airways for broadcasters, there's a public interest standard, and there's a news distortion rule, a broadcast hoax rule. You answered it, yes. I'm going to go on. That particular instance, too, had to do with speech on social media, where Biden administrations were trying to shut down political speech. Again, an area where there is no license, there's no public interest.
