The head of the Federal Communications Commission, which oversees US media outlets, has warned that some broadcasters risk losing their licenses over their news coverage of the Iran war. Brendan Carr – a Trump appointee – wrote in a social media post that broadcasters must operate in the public interest and those that are running hoaxes and fake news have the chance now to correct course before their license renewals come up. Free speech groups blasted Carr’s warning, calling it outrageous. Analysis by Philip Turle, international affairs editor.
