ABC has sued the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) over threats to the network's broadcast licenses, claiming that the agency's actions amount to a First Amendment violation. The lawsuit comes as part of ABC's ongoing battle with the Trump administration, which it says is trying to silence the media outlet. The FCC had previously made demands for access to ABC's internal documents related to its coverage of the 2020 presidential election. By suing the FCC, ABC aims to block those demands and protect its journalistic independence.
