Trump Threatens NBC, ABC Licenses Over News Coverage

President Donald TRUMP escalated his ongoing feud with major news networks, targeting NBC and ABC in a Truth Social post. The president accused both networks of delivering "97% BAD STORIES" about his administration despite what he called "among the greatest 8 months in Presidential History."

Trump suggested the Federal Communications Commission should revoke broadcast licenses for these networks, calling them "an arm of the Democrat Party." The threat comes amid heightened tensions between the administration and media organizations, following recent multi-million dollar settlements with CBS and ABC.

The FCC's licensing authority over television stations remains a potential pressure point, though legal experts question whether such threats could withstand First Amendment challenges. This confrontation continues a pattern of adversarial relations between the Trump administration and mainstream media outlets.
