Hats off to ABC for fighting back!

Again I will accept ALMOST anyone who will stand against this regime Mistakes are made, lessons are taught and learned There is ALWAYS redemption, if ABC has learned what it takes a little late..better than never. We need an unbiased media source.

Finally.

Sadly their earlier capitulations will now work against them. Because Trump's lawyers can turn around and point out how ABC didn't have an issue with what Trump was doing before, so why sue now? Their earlier surrender to fascism has made this a massive uphill battle for them.

Bout time.

It's about time! I hope they're successful. Good luck

It’s about time.

Fight ladies! And ABC. Fight all the way to the Supreme Court! Which will probably rule against you. But hey, gotta fight.

I support ABC in their fight for the 1st Amendment! We must stand with those who fight the good fight!

So much has been violated

IT'S ABOUT DAMN TIME ONE OF YOU GUYS HAD A BACKBONE!

No sorry fighting a corrupt system is insanity. The DoJ is not upholding the law.

Hire Colbert, ABC.

About time

It's about time.

I'm pretty sure the Constitution has no bearing anymore.

Shame ABC didn’t find its backbone the first time.

there is nobody is Maga-ton, DC that gives a fat ratsass about the constitution.

This would all be true if the US was a democracy where the law is consistently applied but it isn’t.

They could've fought back like a year ago but chose not to

"The First Amendment is clear: The federal government can't punish media organizations just because it doesn't like what they have to say."ABC is fighting back for their rights.Wow a legacy media in Trump's US of Shitholes standing up to him?Shocked I am.

More accusations and zero action.

Thank you ABC! Good to see a network showing some guts in the face of fascism.

Your rights, not our rights, you mean; I don't recall you ever stepping up for anyone's except your own, those of corporate media

Go ABC!

serious?

I respect ABC's decision to sue the Federal Government for violating their first amendment rights. They didn't bend the knee as others have. KUDOS ABC!

ABC! Who loves ya, baby?!

Notice to all Progressives on BlueSky: Enjoy your freedom of speech while you have it, because ... it is going ... going ... going ... www.newser.com/story/388813...

I hope CBS is taking notes.

Thank you ABC and Disney. Never thought I'd say those words. Thank you for standing up.

ABC and Disney have the money and power to litigate the FCC to hell and back. The question is do they have the guts to do so.

Too bad the article is paywalled

Amazing. They must know Trump is about to go down.

Finally! Don't settle, ABC! Don't you dare settle for some fucking undisclosed amount.

Bravo ABC! You put CBS to shame.👍🏼💕

The truth is out there but we're not allowed to say it.

🤮🤮🤮🤮

We all must fight!

So happy to see ABC fighting back. If they all had from the very beginning we would not be in such dire straits

Too little too late.

#impeachtrumpnow

Finally, a media company challenging the lawless Trump administration! Go ABC!!

Didn’t they settle and give the felon millions for a suit they would have won?

This is why the MAGA donating billionaires want to own every media outlet. Trump is a criminal "pay to play" grifter, criminal, con-man, rapist who 1/3rd of the worst, most vile, American trash voted into office so he can play out their fantasy of "owning the woke libs." They're all human trash.

ABC needs to keep fighting and fuck CBS for refusing to fight back

I remember when ABC gave Trump a big ol bunch of money. Didn't fight then. You sure they're fighting now???

It's about fucking time.

It's about time...

I watch almost daily. The ladies have been kind … too kind IMHO

Just can’t watch that bunch! The infighting through the years soured me.

About f'n time.

And the problem would be?🤔

Didn’t they cave last time?

Time to sue for punitive damages. Rights are invaluable. An amount beginning with a 'T' should start a conversation.

Finally!!

Thank goodness and IT’S ABOUT DAMN TIME!

And SCOTUS will end freedom of the press as soon as it gets to them.

All the ‘legacy’ media outlets should file a class action law suit for this.. and I’m not sure why it’s taken so long!! especially with the extreme litigious DT and his administration

ABC actually has a spine? Imagine that. 👍

Pick an Amendment they haven’t Violated We have Lost The Constitution But Thankful every damn day For The ACLU still fighting Don’t Underestimate The Power of The People 1776 Bitch We ain’t Dead 💀 Yet

Someone with the avocados to fight back! Who knew?? 🎇🎆

Looks like i will be watching more ABC than CBS in the future

HE HATES Women esp those who question him or speak truth to power!!!!

The FCC under Carr did violate the First Amendment. We have radio stations in Tucson that rely on it all the time--on the Trumpian side.

💯💪

Let's be clear on this one point. It's not propaganda if their arguments are truthful. We still have a few truth Sayers and they have never been more important.

Every media outlet needs to fight back and support ABC

Most of trump administration has never read the constitution, and those that did didn’t understand it. trump et al doesn’t care about constitutional law, or only care insofar as they can “interpret” it to suit their ends.

True - but Im sick of fake news media who waltz into court and claim “we are not news we are purely entertainment” ie fox They need to be tossed from press briefings OR that can institute journalistic standards.

Yeah where were you when Douglas Mackey got sent to prison for a meme?

Fighting back after caving in must be pretty daunting. Imagine forking over million$ & THEN deciding to "fight back"? Just seems a little lame, to me. 🤷‍♀️

i say they sue and fight lawsuits! by the time a ruling could be made Trump would be out of office and then they can be dropped. play his game and delay, delay, delay. tie up his DOJ with useless lawsuits to the point lawyers just leave to avoid having losses on their record.

Now if only they'd fought back all the other times he crushed the 1st Amendment. Like when he falsely sued them over nonsense to silence them in 2024, and instead of going to court and immediately humiliating him and winning with ease, they settled and surrendered to fascism.

Ya think!

This 47 group don't care what the Laws say They do what they want knowing it takes months and years to overturn their actions Got a solution ??????????

Never thought that ABC would grow the stones for this. But rather than admit I was wrong immediately, I think I'll just wait a bit to see if they give in and pay a massive "it's not a bribe" to Tinpot Trump, thereby snatching defeat from the jaws of victory and ignominy from the jaws of... nominy?

Fuck Brendan Carr and Trump

if it didn't have good , money-making ratings, they wouldn't give a shit

About fucking time someone pushed back.

Now they are, eh Mickey?

The problem? ABC will be going against the most corrupt Supreme Court to ever wear a robe.

If ABC really wanted to fight back all that is needed is factual reporting on what the Trump administration is doing, and completely vacating "both sides" reporting. 🤷

This is why we NEED to amend the Constitution in a big way. We're working on a broad, sweeping reform amendment that: - Gets all money out of politics - Protects voting and human rights - Bans gerrymandering - Sets term limits And much more. Full text drops July 4th. Follow us and stay tuned!

But he president can hassle media owners until they back down on the truth and become part of his marketing machine …

Good for ABC and good for Disney! If it looks like they’re going to cave, let’s all contribute some money and buy Disney. We can sign Kimmel and Colbert to a 20 year contract. In the process, we can flip the Nazis the giant bird.🇺🇸🇺🇦🇨🇦🇪🇺

The Constitution also stated something about crimes and misdemeanors

The United States must have a free press … however, if they are misrepresenting the truth, we must make this known so that readers are not mislead.

Hey, Bari Weiss, you too can stop slurping it up and defend 1st Amendment Rights !!

So glad ABC isn't going to cave to Trump like CBS.

I am opposed to any politician who sits by idly & does NOT protect their constituents from LEAF BLOWERS & NOISE POLLUTION. I know they would like us to buy into their partisan bullshit story about how we are divided, about morals, values, issues. I DO NOT buy any of it! I choose my fucking issues...

If it makes you feel better, here in the most Conservative part of SW Ontario, gun sales have skyrocketed. Gun club membership has increased w/more clubs opening. All in anticipation of The Butcher's Work So, if you need a buddy for a quick Article 5 invasion when the GOP denies losing in 28?❤️🦫🤍🦅💙

So, I guess all these years they’ve been astroturfing for fascism bit them in the ass, huh? Damn, and it all seemed so profitable

It's about fucking time!

It's about fucking time!

Next step, stop making propaganda real news...this country deserves better.

Trump administration is trying to errode all the Constitutional rights that makes us a free country. And along the way as a bonus turn the majority population against minority, to pick up speed with the destruction. We are a country of many colors,and proud of who we are. Stay woke as the word means

Of course they have violated the First Amendment - and the Constitution and several Commandments! They are fascist plutocrats with delusions of royalty!

Now If We Could Just Get The Supreme Court To Read The Constitution....

Tell that to the orange-faced thin skinned porcelain piss ant.

The only way you get to keep your rights is to require the loser of a lawsuit to pay all the fees. That's it.

That regime has nothing bur disregard for the Constitution. We better fight back!

ABC has capitulated once already, I wouldn't be commending them TOO much.

explain that to the current POTUS.... *think he missed that chapter

Become a #GuardianOfLiberty by making a small monthly donation!

they need donations.

We should impeach him over this!

Abbott threatened to pull $200 million from Houston, Austin and Dallas unless they cooperated with ICE. Same playbook — use money to silence dissent. The First Amendment doesn't stop at the federal government. #SouthTexas #TexasGov

As it should be. And I will never consume SEE BS again.

About time.

Led by Nazi Brendan Carr has fired and punished talk show hosts and journalists (Colbert&Fallon) for exercising their freedoms. But they did not lie while doing it.

Since they're a corporation and not a person they should have a leg to stand on🙄 I can't believe our reps have given corporations OUR RIGHTS

Thank you for finally standing up to this corrupt regime!!

Spine wanted: must be stronger than acquiescence

Welcome to a constitutional republic ABC

Seems ABC have learned the lesson when they tried to cancel Kimmel last time. I cancelled my Hulu account which I had for over 15 years. No desire to subscribe again. Once you lose something it will take times more work to gain it back, Maybe. Glad to see ABC growing a backbone.

way beyond about f'ing time, ABC!? #1stamendment #freespech #corporateTrumpFluffing #fccbulls*** #FCarr

Better late than never, ABC.
