SVC INTERNATIONAL TRAILBLAZER REPORT:

FREEDOM OF THE PRESS 

The primary organ of the U.S. Government that is charged with the duty to maintain Americans’ Freedom of the Press is the Federal Communications Commission, which includes broadcast, cable, satellite, and internet services, and it plays a key role in safeguarding Freedom of the Press.

The FCC was created the same year Social Security was in 1934 when the only media was radio, newspapers and magazines. The FCC has never had the power to control discrimination in the use of the media to punish political adversaries.

But, during the first 19½ months of the second term of U.S. President Donald Trump has witnessed the FCC changing the very nature of the agency. For most of its history, the FCC has been a policy-driven body existing in an inevitably controversial environment. Under the Trump administration, it has become a politics-driven agency employing FCC policy as an instrument of Trump’s political will.

The FCC was created as an independent agency accountable to Congress, the FCC lost that independence when President Donald Trump issued an Executive Order requiring the FCC and other formerly independent agencies to submit to White House supervision. Then agency actually deleted the word "independent" from its website description. Confirming his agency’s new lack of independence, Chairman Brendan Carr testified to Congress, “The FCC is not an independent agency, formally speaking.”

Just how the no-longer independent agency has exercised its new role is distinctly Trumpian. Consider, for instance, two recent actions of the Commission. Both actions use regulatory authority to influence media coverage, so it is favorable to the President. Both were explained and justified to the public behind a “public interest” smokescreen.

On April 28, 2026, the FCC broke over 50 years of precedent to order The Walt Disney Company’s eight ABC-owned television stations to prematurely apply for renewal of their local broadcast licenses. Trump has been vociferous in his complaints about ABC’s coverage and has repeatedly called for the FCC to revoke local licenses held by ABC.

The smokescreen was the asserted need to investigate whether the stations were complying with their public interest obligations regarding diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI). Carr has provided no evidence that ABC violated any law, nor has the Trump-controlled FCC adopted any broadcast rule governing DEI practices.

On August 6, 2026, the FCC voted 2-1 along party lines to repeal the 39% national television ownership cap established by Congress. To advance the administration’s ability to choose winners and losers under the new rule, the decision authorized the agency to determine who is worthy on a case-by-case basis.

While the ABC action was an effort to coerce favorable coverage, this decision smacks of favoritism to Trump and his MAGA allies. It, too, hides behind a smokescreen; this time, the claim is that online streaming is hurting the ability of broadcasters to afford to deliver local news and thus they must be allowed to expand. Not surprisingly, the first beneficiary had been selected, Trump-supporting  Nexstar Media, which, by acquiring Tegna, Inc, would double its national reach to approximately 80% of American homes.

The deviousness of these decisions is passing off such blatantly political moves to influence what the American people see on television as protecting the “public interest.” Both actions do fulfill, however, the not-so-subtle warning the agency issued to broadcasters in a May 2026 Public Notice that it “will not hesitate to exercise its statutory authority to ensure that broadcasters either fulfill their public interest obligation or provide the privilege of being a broadcast licensee to someone that will fulfill that duty.”

On August 18, 2026, ABC, its parent The Walt Disney Company; and the eight licensees filed a lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia seeking an injunction against the FCC’s early license review on First Amendment grounds. It is a highly unusual action precipitated by the FCC’s highly unusual demand that the company file for early license review.

There are eight television licenses in question (Durham, NC; Chicago, Illinois; Houston, Texas; Los Angeles, California; San Francisco, California; Fresno, California; New York, New York; and Philadelphia, Pennsylvania). These licenses, like all such licenses, have an eight-year term. The shortest time remaining in any of the licenses is Durham, which still has two and a half years to run. The average time remaining in the licenses is four years and three months.

The call for early renewal is prejudicial, ABC argues. The complaint asserts there are only three things that can happen to the licenses in this review: (1) they are renewed (ABC notes that the commission cannot lawfully do at this premature stage), (2) the FCC denies the renewals (thus fulfilling the President’s demand), or (3) they could be subjected to the endless purgatory of an ongoing investigation (equivalent to a sword of Damocles hanging over the heads of licensees if the network’s programming displeases the President). The lawsuit argues that since renewal at this time is beyond the authority of the agency, the proceeding can only have a chilling effect on the programming of the ABC network.

It also appears that the DEI smokescreen is wearing thin. When ABC chose not to cover the President’s July 16 address on election security, Trump during the address called for the revocation of the licenses. The following day, Carr pierced the DEI smokescreen when he stated the commission’s renewal review will include the decision not to carry the speech.

The Nexstar-Tegna transaction was endorsed by Trump on Truth Social as “more competition against THE ENEMY, the Fake News National TV Networks.” Carr’s response left little doubt about his alignment with the President, posting on X, “President Trump is exactly right…Let’s get it done.”

The only trouble was that the transaction was illegal as it violated the ownership cap. The chairman had his media bureau solve that problem by granting Nexstar a waiver that allowed the transaction to proceed. The August 2-1 vote then attempted to eliminate the rule the bureau had already allowed Nexstar to exceed, replacing a uniform numerical limit with discretionary, case-by-case review. Opponents plan to request the court to rule whether the August decision was legal considering the instructions from Congress.

But is this following the public interest, or the President’s interest? The guile of these actions lies in the fact that, in the ABC matter, the FCC has failed to identify any alleged offenses or state the reasons for its actions. The result empowers the President and his commission majority to make politically based determinations. 

A bipartisan group of five former FCC Commissioners is the latest to publicly raise concerns about White House influence within the Commission’s operation under Chairman Brendan Carr, citing decades of precedent and a potential First Amendment violation.

The complaint, filed with the FCC by the Center for American Rights, a Sutton Viewpoint Center Affiliate, stems from CBS airing different portions of a Kamala Harris interview across Face the Nation and 60 Minutes during the 2024 presidential campaign. Although the FCC Enforcement Bureau originally dismissed the complaint in January, it was reopened just days after the new presidential administration took office.

Former FCC Commissioners Rachelle B. Chong, Ervin S. Duggan, Alfred C. Sikes, Gloria Tristani, and former FCC Chair Tom Wheeler argue that the move departs from longstanding policy and precedent that has strictly limited government involvement in editorial news judgments, further warning the proceeding signals an intent to use the FCC as a political tool to pressure broadcasters.

“This Administration has made no secret of its desire to revoke the licenses of broadcasters that cover it in ways the President considers unfavorable,” they wrote in comments filed with the FCC. “By reopening this complaint, the Commission is signaling to broadcasters that it will indeed act at the behest of the White House by closely scrutinizing the content of news coverage.”

The filing says that historically, the FCC has enforced its rarely used news distortion policy only in cases involving blatant fabrication or staged events, never over editorial decisions like content selection or editing. Between 1985 and 2019, the Commission found news distortion in only one case. The former Commissioners stress that no precedent supports action in a case like this one.

“The Commission on which we served, regardless of the party of its Chair or the policy agenda of the President, was an independent agency…dedicated to ensuring that the broadcast spectrum helped to create the marketplace of ideas that undergirds political debate,” they wrote. “To remain true to its mission, the Commission must close this proceeding without further action. To do otherwise would suggest that the Commission has been transformed into a tool of White House-driven speech suppression.”

Last week, current FCC Commissioner Anna Gomez issued another warning of her own during a Town Hall in Los Angeles, accusing the Trump administration of orchestrating a “coordinated campaign” to suppress dissent and control the press. Speaking on her “First Amendment Tour,” she alleged that federal agencies, including the FCC and FTC, are being weaponized to intimidate newsrooms, with corporate parents pressuring journalists to self-censor out of fear of regulatory retaliation.

Of course, the Sutton Viewpoint Center has attempted to gain simple, full entry onto the United States airwaves for SVC-TV and SVC-TV International for 20¼ years now. Initially, the FCC was open to SVC-TV and the process moved to acquiring access to satellite and cable networks. That has never worked out and SVC, unlike ABC, has successfully pressed court challenges. https://www.svctrailblazerpublications.com/future-of-mass-media-in-the-usa-world

SEA CHANGE IN BROADCAST JOURNALISM

The Federal Court Partners (FCP) unanimously agree that it is time for SVC-TV to replace CNN; SVC-TV INTERNATIONAL to replace HLN; and the SVC-TV NEWS CHANNEL to replace FOX NEWS. The International Tribunals Conferred and their U.S. Federal Court Partners have Reviewed and Confirmed those Judgments effective immediately. 

What this means is the SVC-TV Networks will be on all Cable and Satellite systems on channels formerly assigned to CNN, HLN and FOX NEWS. The assets will also be transferred to SVC and will augment the current SVC-TV systems.

The key partners of the National Cover-up of the al Qaeda Hezbollah Successful Takeover of America Scandal will soon be eliminated, and the truth will finally be dealt with by all Americans!

The Announcements of these actions came late Friday, 11 September 2026. More on logistics as they become available. 

Also, the FCP are reviewing Judgments by the World Trade Organization regarding the Hobbs Act (The Hobbs Act is a U.S. Federal Law (18 U.S.C. § 1951)) that criminalizes robbery, extortion, and related attempts or conspiracies that affect interstate or foreign commerce.) In this case, it involves the blacklisting practices against President Sutton of the mass and social media; Publishing Industries; and related Creative Arts Industries.

To counter the disrespect shown to SVC Personnel by the traitors/terrorists of the AQHSTAS will be handled in the same manner as disrespect shown superior Commissioned Officers in the U.S. Armed Services, pursuant to 10 U.S. Code § 889 - Art. 89.

Normally, violations of the Uniform Code of Military Justice could be punished by a bad conduct discharge, forfeiture of pay and allowances, confinement or death if committed in wartime. But with the AQHSTAS, violations will be punishable by an automatic designation as a Class 3 Offender just as Public Servants who have betrayed the Public Trust will be, the worst possible. 

Simple respect. SVC Personnel expects nothing more and will accept nothing less! 

(e. g. Margaret Houlihan ~M*A*S*H: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ApQbQEeqNR0)

The greatest concern is here how and why the traitors/terrorists have been so successful in excoriating President Sutton before the American Public. Those traitors/terrorists who doctored President Sutton’s personal and public records; background and reference checks; police reports; prevaricating about the facts of the case to recruit other players to cooperate in the scandal; betrayed the public trust; and refused to take personal responsibility for what they have done and instead attempted to place the responsibility for the Community Punishments on their Victim will be the primary targets of a new round of lawsuits for libel and slandering President Sutton.

Libel and slander lawsuits are rare cases where the burden of proof is on the Defendants. That ought to be good! The International Tribunals and the FCP have determined to their satisfaction that no such proof ever existed just like with the alleged video of President Sutton shoplifting at Albertson’s never existed way back in March 2006! This has gone on much too long!

FCP have also reiterated the necessity for the traitors/terrorists to have Psychiatric Evaluations. TRAITORS/TERRORISTS WILL BE ORDERED TO HAVE PSYCHIATRIC EVALUATIONS | SVC Trailblazer Publications

The Judges have witnessed behavior on videos by the traitors/terrorists that concerns them. The practice of invoking Neighborhood Watch and/or businesses reserving the right to refuse service is being used to justify taunting, stalking, intimidation and defamation of Security Chief Norman. Chief Norman is just traveling through their neighborhood or using their business like everyone else. Some have even been aggressive and expressing untoward anger. That’s crazy!

In most cases, the FCP have already reviewed and approved International Judgments against these people and/or businesses. Arrests and execution of these Judgments are obvious actions to take!
