FCC Chair Calls CBS News' Handling of Kamala Harris Interview 'Hard to Explain

FCC Chair Brendan Carr expressed puzzlement over CBS News' conduct following the release of an unedited transcript of a 2019 interview with Vice President Kamala Harris on its '60 Minutes' program, questioning what was deemed newsworthy about the exchange. The FCC has since called for a review into whether CBS broke any rules during the interview process. Carr has stated that he is struggling to understand why the network chose not to release the full, unedited transcript at the time of the original broadcast. The issue highlights concerns over journalistic integrity and transparency in news reporting.
