Conservatives Throw a Flag on Ana Navarro for Seeming to Endorse a Democratic Candidate on The View: ‘How is This Not Electioneering?’
- On Monday, The View co-host Ana Navarro urged Floridians in Florida's 27th Congressional District to vote for Democratic challenger Elliott Rodriguez, telling viewers, "We can knock this woman out, go vote."
- These remarks intensified an ongoing dispute between ABC and the Federal Communications Commission over whether The View qualifies as a "bona fide news interview program," which would exempt the network from political equal-time requirements.
- Conservative critics, including Washington Examiner columnist Joe Concha and Heritage Media Fellow Tim Young, argued the network is "begging to have their license pulled" for allegedly violating Federal Election Commission guidelines regarding electioneering communications.
- Federal Elections Commission rules define electioneering as communications identifying a federal candidate within 60 days of a general election, leading to claims that Navarro's endorsement constitutes an improper campaign advertisement.
- As ABC fights a lawsuit alleging a "retaliatory campaign" by the FCC, critics like Concha noted that the news division is run by Dana Walden, who has held fundraisers for Democratic candidate Kamala Harris.
