Ted Cruz Calls FCC’s Actions ‘Dangerous as Hell’

Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) admonished FCC Chair Brendan Carr for demanding ABC suspend Jimmy Kimmel’s late night show — calling Carr’s actions “dangerous as hell” and “right out of ‘Goodfellas,’” Politico reports.

Said Cruz: “If the government gets in the business of saying, ‘We don’t like what you, the media, have said; we’re going to ban you from the airwaves if you don’t say what we like’ — that will end up bad for conservatives.”

He added: “They will silence us. They will use this power, and they will use it ruthlessly.”
