FCC Asks Judge to Dismiss Disney ABC Lawsuit

The US Federal Communications Commission filed a motion asking a judge to dismiss a lawsuit brought by Walt Disney Co. The complaint alleges that the regulator ran an illegal retaliatory campaign targeting ABC. This campaign supposedly punished the network for shows criticized by the Trump administration. Bloomberg Law covered the filing and provided a link to the full story on the tech and telecom law site. The FCC maintains that the suit should be tossed out entirely. The public posts show this development in the ongoing legal dispute between the agency and the media company over license matters.
