Why Donald Trump and Elon Musk are picking on broadcast TV
Briefly

Trump has threatened since 2017 to revoke broadcast licenses from networks like ABC, NBC, and CBS due to their unfavorable coverage, echoing concerns from tech billionaires.
In a normal world, revoking broadcast licenses would seem like idle billionaire wishcasting, as spectrum access is controlled by the FCC, not individuals.
It's disappointing that while Elon Musk claims to be a free speech absolutist, he seems to overlook crucial First Amendment protections against governmental punishment of speech.
History shows the government has regulated speech on broadcast platforms, highlighting the complexities in regulating tech companies and social media regarding free speech.
