We're doing something about Fox's 2020 election lies. Support our effort.
We have petitioned the FCC to deny FOX Corp broadcast television licenses on the grounds that they fail the character tests required for public broadcast.
Remember, the judge ruled, to instruct the jury, that all of Fox’s statements were false. But Dominion still has the right to make its case. So they are going to present the statements, from their first opening, in all their lurid detail. Fox has to just sit there and take it.
Fox purposefully lied to Americans continually, knowing criminal suspect Donald lost. Fox helped him spread #TheBigLie and launch the insurrection.
The Media and Democracy Project is taking the fight to #FoxLies!
The Murdochs promoted & spread election lies & do NOT possess the requisite character to receive FCC broadcast licenses for their TV stations. Join our campaign, sign on here! https://www.mediaanddemocracyproject.org/sign-on-letter
Floyd Abrams: FCC Has ‘Ample Basis’ To Revoke Fox TV License
renowned First Amendment attorney submits objection to FCC supporting their ability to revoke FOX license, cites Fox's
'willful decision to repeatedly broadcast false information about the election'
"Fox's Reporting Fail: On one of the busiest travel days of the year, with the country in a heightened security stance as millions hit the road and air ahead of Thanksgiving, Fox News recklessly smashed the panic button and stoked fear from coast-to-coast. In the early afternoon, the right-wing network went live with a dramatic report from correspondent Alexis McAdams. McAdams declared that there had just been an "attempted terrorist attack" at the international bridge connecting the U.S. and Canada in Niagara Falls, breathlessly reporting that a "car full of explosives" had exploded at a border checkpoint. That report was placed atop Fox News' highly trafficked website and sent as a push alert to millions of phones via its app. The network went all in on it, even baselessly speculating on air about Islamic terrorist groups. It was careless — and it was wrong."
We’re asking the FCC to adhere to its character clause and hold a hearing into whether FOX Corp is fit to hold a broadcast license. Billionaires who lie for profit show bad character and don’t deserve to broadcast over the public airwaves.
Fox News told lies about the 2020 election that caused Americans to storm the Capitol in nothing less than a deadly coup attempt. Billionaires who lie for profit don't deserve broadcast licenses. We're doing something about it. You can help by signing on. http://tiny.cc/fccfox
