Morning Brew Daily · Disney Goes to War Against the FCC & People Can “Rent Now, Pay Later” · 19 Aug 2026 podcast

All of these things, 15 and 30 year mortgages, car loans, credit card rates typically rise and fall with treasury rates, as lenders use these rates as the floor or the guide when they're pricing their uh loans.

And so uh just like treasury rates.

Treasury's mortgage mortgage rates have increased this week.

As of yesterday, they hit 6.75%.

And as somebody who does not personally follow the mortgage rate market, considering uh owning a home for me is pretty distant dream, I was curious: is this reasonable?

Is this uh has this happened before?

And the reality is, yes, um, this isn't the highest uh mortgage rates have ever been.

The highest was actually in October 1981, when a 30-year fixed rate mortgage

Would cost you a rate of eighteen point six three percent.

And the lowest was actually just a few years ago in January of twenty twenty-one when rates hit just two point six five percent.

So it could be better, it could be worse.

Yeah, I mean, you talked about unprecedented moves.

It's extremely rare for the FCC to actually revoke a license.

Uh, the last time they did that related to a station's programming was in 1969, when the regulator took action after a Jackson, Mississippi station defended segregation on air.

Uh so what would this mean for Disney if the FCC did revoke this license?

Um, well, Disney directly owns and operates eight local TV stations through.

A B C.

After buying ABC thirty years ago, it includes stations in NYC, LA, Chicago, Houston, and San Francisco.

Uh and if the FCC did revoke Disney's license, these stations would go off air.

Yeah, and the FCC's also launched a separate inquiry into The View, which is one of the uh news or talk shows on Disney's networks, um, based on the equal time rule, which basically says non-news shows that feature political candidates on air should also feature their opponents for equal amounts of time to give everyone kind of a fair shake.
