The New FCC Chairman’s Agenda Contradicts Conservative Principles

Source: Reason
by Jacob Sullum

“‘The censorship cartel must be dismantled,’ Brendan Carr declared two days before President-elect Donald Trump picked him to chair the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). Trump described Carr as ‘a warrior for Free Speech.’ Carr’s plans for ‘reining in Big Tech’ understandably appeal to Trump, who has long complained that the leading social media platforms are biased against him. But Carr’s agenda is blatantly inconsistent with conservative principles, including limited government, free markets, freedom of speech, and opposition to lawless regulation.” (11/20/24)
