Former GOP FCC Chair Alfred Sikes Backs Fox License Hearing

Hearing would be an inquiry into whether Rupert and Lachlan Murdoch, or Fox Corp meet the character standards to own broadcast TV stations.

They are moderating the GOP debate this week.

In the past few weeks a number of ex-FCC commissioners have come out in support of our petition: Duggan, Sikes, and Reed Hundt have all urged the FCC act. The first step is simple — to hold a hearing. It is the least the @FCC can do.

Both Republican and Democratic commissioners and over FCC experts have spoken out. The FCC cannot ignore them and must act.

Sikes joins former Fox executive Preston Padden, past FCC Commissioner Ervin Duggan, former Fox commentator Bill Kristoland us, @MAD_democracy, in urging the FCC to hold Murdoch accountable for his democracy-damaging lies.

We saw Tucker Carlson pushed out at Fox and replaced.

The problem is not just the hosts — it’s the owners. Rupert and Lachlan Murdoch own Fox News and FCC-regulated broadcast TV stations.

Former Republican FCC Chairman Al Sikes joins us in asking the FCC to scrutinize Murdoch/Fox TV licenses.

“The FCC must designate for a hearing the application of the Murdochs and Fox for renewal of their license to operate WTXF, Philadelphia.”

As an FCC broadcast licensee, FOX and its subsidiary broadcast stations, have a basic statutory duty to conduct those operations in the public interest.

Media Veterans Bill Kristol and Ervin Duggan have joined us in support of our request to the @FCC.

We, and they, are asking our government to consider media ownership and how it affects democracy—to consider if the Murdoch family has the required character to be granted local TV broadcast licenses.

Kristol is a prominent neo-conservative commentator. Duggan is a former FCC commissioner, head of PBS.
