FCC Investigates CBS News for Editing Kamala Harris Interview Amid Election Controversy

FCC Chairman Brendan Carr has called out CBS News for its handling of the “60 Minutes” interview with Vice President Kamala Harris, criticizing the network’s decision to withhold the full unedited transcript for months. The controversy intensified after CBS aired selective portions of Harris’ answers, leading to accusations of deceptive editing to downplay her controversial remarks. The raw transcript, now released by the FCC, highlights discrepancies in how the interview was portrayed on different platforms, fueling allegations of media distortion. President Trump’s legal team has filed a $10 billion lawsuit against CBS, accusing the network of election interference. The FCC’s ongoing investigation into these practices underscores the growing scrutiny over media transparency and the potential impact on public trust.
