NRB Urges Senate to Reject FCC Nominee Gigi Sohn
National Religious Broadcasters (NRB) announced last week its opposition to the confirmation of Gigi Sohn to the Federal Communications Commission (FCC).
“Ms. Sohn is an activist lawyer who has made no secret of her contempt for conservative media,” said NRB CEO Troy A. Miller. “As a professional association that exists to keep platforms open for Christian communicators, we have serious concern about Ms. Sohn’s demonstrated hostility to broadcasters and her apparent openness to the use of FCC regulatory action to censor ideas with which she personally disagrees.”
