Broadcasters that are running hoaxes and news distortions – also known as the fake news – have a chance now to correct course before their license renewals come up.
The law is clear. Broadcasters must operate in the public interest, and they will lose their licenses if they do not.
And frankly, changing course is in their own business interests since trust in legacy media has now fallen to an all time low of just 9% and are ratings disasters.
The American people have subsidized broadcasters to the tune of billions of dollars by providing free access to the nation’s airwaves.
It is very important to bring trust back into media, which has earned itself the label of fake news.
When a political candidate is able to win a landslide election victory after in the face of hoaxes and distortions, there is something very wrong. It means the public has lost faith and confidence in the media. And we can’t allow that to happen.
I do not have an in-depth understanding of Carr, but over the years I have tended to agree with him most of the time. His statement above is a good move and will help any honest broadcaster, which few of them are. ABN
I posted this image a few days ago. Not releasing Epstein files from this time period is a strong indication Israel did it or was involved. If not that, then something else; but the probability is the blackout is to conceal 9/11 evidence. This is a major detail worth amplifying. Public opinion could force a release. ABN

WARSAW – Poland’s President Karol Nawrocki on Friday vetoed legislation meant to implement the EU’s Digital Services Act, despite the bill having been adopted by parliament at the end of 2025.
Hillary Clinton has furiously attacked a top Republican in a dispute over how her and her husband’s Jeffrey Epstein testimony will be recorded by Congress.
Bill and Hillary are set to testify on their relationship with the pedophile later this month before the House Oversight Committee.
Hillary on Thursday accused Oversight Chair James Comer, a Republican, of ‘moving the goalposts’, alleging that he is now demanding that the Clintons’ depositions – originally agreed to be held behind closed doors – be filmed as well as transcribed.
‘Let’s stop the games. If you want this fight, @RepJamesComer, let’s have it—in public,’ the former Secretary of State posted on X.
‘You love to talk about transparency. There’s nothing more transparent than a public hearing, cameras on. We will be there.’
Many of the Epstein files are marred with redactions that should not be there. It’s possible the allegations in this note are not true and thus the name was redacted. It could also be that the redacted name married someone to big to fall. ABN
Our state’s largest newspaper got $2.4M in no-bid contracts from Gov Janet Mills and part of that was to recruit Africa asylum seekers to work in the autism homes run by African asylum seekers.
The legacy media was getting paid. So why report on that?
Bangor Publishing Company — the company that owns both the Bangor Daily News (BDN) and a lesser-known marketing agency — has received more than $2.4 million from state agencies since Gov. Janet Mills (D) took office in 2019, according to a review of contracts filed with Maine’s procurement office.
The payments to Bangor Publishing Company are not regularly disclosed by the company’s newspaper arm but are available publicly via the state’s vendor payment disclosures and its procurement record websites.
State financial records show that payments made to either Bangor Publishing Company, Pulse Marketing Agency, or Pulse Marketing LLC began almost immediately after Gov. Mills entered office and totaled more than $2.4 million as of fiscal year 2024.
