Brendan Carr says his broadcast license threat wasn’t really about Iran war coverage

Federal Communications Commission Chair Brendan Carr never meant to threaten broadcast licenses over their coverage of the war in Iran, he told reporters after an event hosted by FGS and Semafor . “My comments weren’t actually on the Iran war,” Carr said in response to a question from The Verge about his statement regarding coverage of the war.
