ABC blasts FCC over The View inquiry, warning of a chilling effect on free speech

TL;DR Summary
ABC, on behalf of Disney, told the FCC that its probe into The View’s compliance with the equal-time rule risks a chilling effect on First Amendment rights and targets a bona fide news program exempt from the rule; the FCC will consider whether The View qualifies for the exemption even as it reviews ABC’s licenses in a separate action.
