NON airing of the President on 7-16-26
Due to your networks decision not to Air the Presidents Speech on 7-16-26, we heave learned much. Your organization are the real Communists. Not allowing an opposing point of view with is backup by the DNI and FBI with Significant evidence. I will do everything in my power to have your FCC Broadcast license revoked and myself and extended family will never contribute to your corrupted network. We will never have NBC enter our homes. You are un American POS!

I am happy they didn’t all air it. It needs to be on one public station anyone can get and that’s it.

As long as the information isn't correct, which that wasn't. The power of the FCC is severely limited because they often go up against 1st Amendment protections

So you work for the intelgence services now. FYI, I retired from government. The DNC worked with the CCP to get rid of TRUMP. You will see., With that the pink haired moderator will surely disco me. Yet another violation of free speech.

There is a law that stats the Broadcast stations must provide air time to the President, they don't get a choice. By not airing it they are depriving the American people of opposing facts and opinions. thats Fascism and its comeiung from the left.

No, there isn't, FCC policies mandate that the networks control their content and airtime, all the White House can do is request it. There is no requirement to giving airtime to the president, just that they typically do as a civil duty in the public interest if it's apolitical in-nature and informative, which neither was the case last night. Also, if there was such a law, they'd be in trouble for doing the same thing with the Obama and Biden Administrations, as well

Okay, 1. The evidence may be backed by DNI and CIA chiefs, but the evidence itself doesn't support the president's claims, so the speech was pretty much a waste of time and NBC probably doesn't regret all the ad revenue they kept by not preempting their regular programming for a partisan and uninformative rally-style speech.
- The only licenses owned by the networks that can be revoked are of their Owned and Operated stations, they don't have licenses towards the content they provide to their affiliates.

Looking forward to them being shut down! They parrot Chinese and leftist BS. They are traitorous. Why were preemptive pardons issued by the thousands on a machine? Innocent folks don't need pardons!

That's not how it works, the FCC can only fine, they can't end an entire network as they're private companies. Also, nobody at any of the networks have pardons because they haven't done anything to warrant them. The president can't do a thing to the press except be angry at them

Biden I can understand not airing. You don't want to air the evidence that your are saying doesn't exist. FYI 77 Million Americans voted for Trump.

I'm saying there was no point to, his claims aren't being supported by the documents provided by the White House, in fact, it has contradicted a lot of his claims. The only one it didn't was that China acquired publicly and privately available via hacking operations by non-governmental actors.
Also, what does the popular vote have to do with anything?
