FCC asks court to reject Disney lawsuit over station licenses
DIS•FCC seeks dismissal of Disney lawsuit
The Federal Communications Commission on Thursday asked a U.S. judge to toss out Disney's lawsuit seeking to block the agency's early review of licenses for the entertainment giant’s eight company-owned ABC stations.
The FCC said if Disney were successful it would prevent the commission from analyzing evidence in its ongoing investigation and hobble the agency's "efforts to investigate and resolve serious allegations that Disney has engaged in unlawful discrimination."
