Trump Attack Dog Makes Ominous Vow to ‘Rebalance’ U.S. Media

A top MAGA goon has ominously promised the administration will be urging an overhaul of U.S. television to ensure a better selection of patriotic programming.

“They’ve amassed a tremendous amount of power,” Federal Communications Commission Chair Brendan Carr told the New York Post on Wednesday of the nation’s network broadcasters. “They’ve effectively turned those local TV stations into mouthpieces for the foie gras, oftentimes, that they’re producing in New York and Hollywood.”

It was not immediately clear what Carr meant by his mixed-metaphorical reference to duck liver pate. Less ambiguous were his comments about “pushing” policies at the FCC to “rebalance” the current state of things, citing as an example his “Pledge America Campaign,” which urges networks to air “pro-American” materials to mark the 250th anniversary of the country’s founding later this year.
