FCC investigating if ABC's 'The View' violated equal time rules for political candidates
The FCC's probe targets 'The View' over a Texas Democratic candidate's appearance, reflecting a new enforcement of equal-time rules for talk shows, affecting over 200 ABC affiliates.
- The Federal Communications Commission has opened an investigation into whether ABC’s daytime talk show violated political “equal time” rules after interviewing Texas Democratic Senate candidate James Talarico.
- The inquiry follows recent FCC guidance reaffirming that the Communications Act of 1934’s equal opportunities requirement applies to late-night and daytime talk shows.
- The probe was prompted by Talarico’s appearance earlier this week; he is competing against Rep. Jasmine Crockett in a contentious Democratic primary, alongside a crowded Republican field for the same Senate seat.
