FCC Probes Soros' Impact on Local Radio and Political Messages

At a Glance

Soros’ Media Takeover: A Threat to Conservative Values?

Just when you thought the liberal elite couldn’t sink their talons any deeper into America’s airwaves, along comes George Soros with a power play that would make Machiavelli blush. The billionaire Democrat donor, known for his deep pockets and even deeper liberal agenda, is now set to control a whopping 200 radio stations across 40 markets, potentially reaching over 165 million Americans. And guess what? The FCC is rolling out the red carpet for him.

This isn’t just another business deal, folks. This is a calculated move to flood the airwaves with left-wing propaganda just in time for the upcoming presidential election. And the worst part? Our own government watchdogs are wagging their tails instead of barking at the intruder.

FCC’s “Special Shortcut” Raises Eyebrows and Blood Pressure

FCC Commissioner Brendan Carr, seemingly the lone voice of reason in this circus, is sounding the alarm. He’s calling out the Commission for creating a “special shortcut” just for Soros’ group. Since when did the rules not apply to everyone equally? Oh right, when Democrats are involved.

“It’s very much out of the ordinary, we’ll be creating a special shortcut just for this one entity that is backed ultimately by this George Soros group” – FCC Commissioner Brendan Carr

The deal involves over 25% foreign ownership, which typically triggers a thorough national security review. But apparently, when you’re a liberal billionaire, you get to skip the line and go straight to “Go,” collecting 200 radio stations along the way.

House Republicans Demand Answers

Thank goodness for the House Oversight Committee. They’re not letting this slide without a fight. Representatives James Comer and Nick Langworthy are demanding answers from FCC Chair Jessica Rosenworcel about this suspiciously speedy approval process. It’s about time someone stood up for the American people and their right to unbiased information.

“Despite the unprecedented nature of this action, the FCC majority has apparently decided to approve licenses on an accelerated timeframe for a company in which George Soros has a major ownership stake, and with stations in 40 media markets reaching ‘more than 165 million Americans,'” – House Oversight Chair Rep. James Comer, R-Ky. and Rep. Nick Langworthy, R-N.Y.

But let’s not kid ourselves. This isn’t just about following procedures. This is about safeguarding our democracy from the insidious influence of a man who’s made it his life’s mission to reshape America in his globalist image.

The Real Threat: Information Manipulation

Mike Gonzalez, a senior fellow at the Heritage Foundation, hit the nail on the head when he said, “I have no idea why Soros would do this unless it was to manipulate the thinking of Americans and the information they listen to.” Bingo! This isn’t about diversifying media ownership; it’s about controlling the narrative.

As we barrel towards one of the most crucial elections in our nation’s history, we can’t afford to have our airwaves hijacked by someone with a clear agenda to undermine our conservative values. This isn’t just about radio stations; it’s about the soul of America.

So, patriots, it’s time to tune in and speak up. Let’s make sure our representatives know we’re watching, and we won’t stand for this backdoor attempt to influence our thoughts and votes. The Constitution protects free speech, not free manipulation. It’s time to turn the volume up on this issue before Soros turns the volume down on conservative voices across America.
