'BradCast' 4/23/2025 (Guest: Media Action Center's Sue Wilson on FCC plan to gut media ownership rules)

04-23-2025 (52.65 MB)

On today's 'BradCast': The Trump Administration has launched a full-scale attack on press freedom in America. The veteran producer of the venerable news program '60 Minutes' resigned, citing pressure from CBS News' corporate owner, which is seeking administration approval for a billion-dollar merger and wants to get rid of Donald Trump's ridiculous $20 billion lawsuit against the program. A federal judge has reversed the administration's shut down of Voice of America and its international sister organizations, ordering full restoration.  Broadcast news veteran SUE WILSON explains how Trump's far-right FCC Chairman is colluding with the nation's largest owner of local TV stations to eliminate caps on how many local media outlets a single company can own, and misleading their viewers into helping them. Wilson details how to take action by registering an official comment by the deadline on Monday, April 28.
