Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Chairman Brendan Carr is scheduled to deliver an update regarding the agency’s investigation into George Soros and his influence on local radio stations during a meeting with Republican lawmakers on Wednesday.
As reported by Fox News, Carr will speak to members of the Republican Study Committee, which comprises 175 House Republicans, during their annual private lunch.
His presentation is anticipated to concentrate on Soros’s role in local radio stations, especially considering his connections to an investment firm that purchased over 200 Audacy radio stations across the country last year.
This meeting occurs amidst increasing Republican scrutiny regarding the deal, with numerous lawmakers expressing concerns about foreign ownership and the regulatory procedures adhered to by the FCC.
Carr is anticipated to address wider strategies aimed at countering the influence of left-leaning media, a topic that has become increasingly significant among high-ranking Republican officials.
