Live-action shot of Chair Carr’s team directing staff to remove the word “independent” from the homepage that describes the role of the FCC.
In April, I wrote about how FCC Chair Brendan Carr has spent years auditioning to hold an apple, peach, or whatever Real Housewives prop by pandering to the “main character.”
His testimony today before Senate Commerce proved that...again.

During questioning, FCC Chair Brendan Carr was asked whether the FCC is an independent agency. Sen. Luján specifically cited the FCC website calling it “independent.”
I took a screenshot of the site at 11:54 am
I took another at 12:22 pm and the word “independent” was gone.
