"This Could Be Huge: The FCC Is Investigating American Media And Other Companies For Russian Ownership Ties"

"Conducted jointly with the Departments of Justice and Homeland Security, the FCC review covers more than just media entities regulated by the FCC’s broadcast licensing program, the person said. It also covers a vast array of telecommunications and infrastructure companies, including wireless providers, submarine cable operators, and foreign telecom that connect US-international phone calls, the person said."

"Conservative companies like Fox News that have been engaging in pro-Russia coverage have raised suspicion. Any companies that are found to have ownership ties to Russia could be deemed a security threat to the United States and could be subject to being ejected from the United States."

I am not certain exactly how to feel about this news. My first reaction was glad that FOX is being scrutinized. On farther reflection, however, I wonder how close to something like censorship something like this could be or could become. As much as I dislike FOX and would like to see them gone, the concern for our freedoms is also real. Still, we know the effect Russia influence in our elections has been and we do have politicians who sympathize with Putin and Russia as they invade the territory of their neighbor.
