WaPo: "In a perfect world, liberals would take the same lessons from Carr’s attempted abuses, and a bipartisan coalition would vote to abolish the FCC."

The FCC chairman keeps showing why his agency shouldn’t exist.

@jeffjarvis I think the framing from WaPo is not the right one. It shows why FCC needs to be independent of the government and focused on technical issues, not that it should not exist.

In other countries there are also criteria about foreign ownership, but they come from the law, not from who is heading the agency.
