SAN FRANCISCO (KRON) — The Federal Communications Fee is investigating a San Francisco radio station for its protection of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) actions within the Bay Space final month. In an look on Fox Information, FCC chair Brendan Carr accused SF-based KCBS 740 AM of broadcasting stay places of undercover ICE brokers, calling it “really concerning.”

Carr, who was appointed FCC chair final month by President Donald Trump, mentioned the FCC is wanting into the station and had despatched KCBS a letter of inquiry.

“We have sent a letter of inquiry, a formal investigation into that matter, and they have days left to respond to that inquiry and explain how this could possibly be consistent with their public interest obligations,” Carr informed Fox Information.

The FCC’s Enforcement Bureau will reportedly inquire as as to if KCBS violated the phrases of its FCC license, which dictates that it function within the “public interest.”

KRON4.com reached out to KCBS’s mother or father firm Audacy which declined to remark.

This isn’t the primary time Bay Space officers have run afoul of the Trump administration over ICE raids. In 2018, then-Oakland Mayor Libby Schaaf warned native residents of ICE immigration sweeps.

Thomas Homan, Trump’s present “border czar” condemned Schaaf on “Fox and Friends” on the time, saying that her warning was “no better than a gang lookout yelling ‘police’ when a police cruiser comes into the neighborhood.”
