The 178 00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:48,800 Speaker 2: President says the FCCS should consider revoking the licenses of 179 00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:51,440 Speaker 2: broadcast networks he deems too critical. 180 00:09:51,960 --> 00:09:56,080 Speaker 4: They're getting a license. I would think maybe their license 181 00:09:56,120 --> 00:09:58,840 Speaker 4: should be taken away. It will be up to Brendan Carr. 182 00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:01,400 Speaker 2: That was President Trump speaking aboard Air Force One on 183 00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:03,280 Speaker 2: his way back from his state visit to the UK. 184 00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:07,199 Speaker 2: And this morning we're joined by Bloomberg's Rosalind Mathieson and Roz. 185 00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:09,400 Speaker 2: Of course, we know the President has a long history 186 00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:13,319 Speaker 2: of putting legal pressure on media organizations, so that this 187 00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:15,559 Speaker 2: seems to take things to a whole new level. 188 00:10:15,640 --> 00:10:18,560 Speaker 5: Good morning, Good morning, And yeah it does. I mean, 189 00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:22,200 Speaker 5: there are several layers of this is obviously the individual 190 00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:25,320 Speaker 5: impact on Kimmel in all of this on his show. 191 00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:28,599 Speaker 5: There's the potential, you know, death, someone would say of 192 00:10:28,760 --> 00:10:32,920 Speaker 5: the late night talk show format, because those shows tend 193 00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:36,800 Speaker 5: to be robust in their commentary around everything, including politics. 194 00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:37,680 Speaker 3: But then more. 195 00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:42,440 Speaker 5: Broadly, there's a question of tying the behavior of TV 196 00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:47,880 Speaker 5: networks to politics. And you know, the FCC has long 197 00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:51,920 Speaker 5: had these powers over licenses and the ability to make 198 00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:56,200 Speaker 5: changes to licensing and take licenses away even but they've 199 00:10:56,440 --> 00:10:59,640 Speaker 5: really tended not to use it, or certainly not in 200 00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:03,880 Speaker 5: these circumstances. And the very clear endorsement from Donald Trump 201 00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:07,720 Speaker 5: of the FCC criticism that came of Kimmel and his commentary, 202 00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:10,319 Speaker 5: and we saw the swift repercussions from that with his 203 00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:13,600 Speaker 5: show being taken off the air. There's a direct line 204 00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:18,040 Speaker 5: now between what Trump wants to see TV networks producing 205 00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:20,800 Speaker 5: and what they may feel that they can produce with 206 00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:23,280 Speaker 5: the thing that's hanging over their heads, and all of 207 00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:26,199 Speaker 5: that is the question of their license. So do we 208 00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:29,679 Speaker 5: see big changes in behavior as a result, and what 209 00:11:29,800 --> 00:11:32,520 Speaker 5: does that mean in the end for the concepts of 210 00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:37,400 Speaker 5: networks being able to air footage or commentary that is 211 00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:40,800 Speaker 5: critical of a government and certainly of a sitting president, 212 00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:44,599 Speaker 5: and so some very big precedents potentially being up for 213 00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:45,400 Speaker 5: grabs and all of. 214 00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:47,880 Speaker 2: This, and there's still the question, isn't there rise about 215 00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:53,280 Speaker 2: whether the decision by the Disney owned network to suspend 216 00:11:53,400 --> 00:11:57,120 Speaker 2: Kimmel was a business decision or whether it was directly 217 00:11:57,240 --> 00:11:59,520 Speaker 2: related to the pressure that we saw this week from 218 00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:01,760 Speaker 2: FCC Chairman Brendan Carr. 219 00:12:02,640 --> 00:12:03,160 Speaker 7: Well, that's right. 220 00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:05,679 Speaker 5: It's interesting to see this example and obviously the previous 221 00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:09,920 Speaker 5: example involving Stephen Colbert, and whether you know, these came 222 00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:13,840 Speaker 5: at a time that these companies were also having big 223 00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:18,679 Speaker 5: deals or needing endorsement of certain changes in their company's behavior, 224 00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:21,880 Speaker 5: and for certainly the biggest producer, are the biggest owner 225 00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:25,280 Speaker 5: rather of local TV stations in the US. You know, 226 00:12:25,360 --> 00:12:27,719 Speaker 5: they have a deal before the FCC that they want 227 00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:31,199 Speaker 5: done an acquisition and they need FCC clearance for that. 228 00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:34,719 Speaker 5: And so you know, was there an impact in their 229 00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:37,520 Speaker 5: thinking in the minute because they know that they need 230 00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:40,480 Speaker 5: the FCC on their side to say that they were 231 00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:44,720 Speaker 5: going to pull his show from their networks at least, 232 00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:48,360 Speaker 5: and we can see that previously. And so if you 233 00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:53,600 Speaker 5: do need the government or regulators to support you, are 234 00:12:53,679 --> 00:12:57,240 Speaker 5: you going to start making these decisions regardless of the 235 00:12:57,400 --> 00:13:00,679 Speaker 5: ratings of the of the show involved or the money involved, 236 00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:03,800 Speaker 5: because you do need that broader relationship to stay intact. 237 00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:06,440 Speaker 2: Of course, later this morning, the coverage of President Trump 238 00:13:06,520 --> 00:13:08,880 Speaker 2: is going to continue with the phone call later this 239 00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:12,560 Speaker 2: morning with Chinese President shi Jinping. So many layers there 240 00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:15,880 Speaker 2: as well, including one involving new media. What's going to 241 00:13:15,960 --> 00:13:18,040 Speaker 2: happen to TikTok, Well, that. 242 00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:19,960 Speaker 5: Is the big question. It does seem as though they've 243 00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:22,480 Speaker 5: got to a bit of a framework on TikTok going 244 00:13:22,559 --> 00:13:26,840 Speaker 5: into this conversation. Some of the details are still very unclear, 245 00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:29,560 Speaker 5: but basically, you will end up in a situation where 246 00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:33,360 Speaker 5: byte Edance's state drops to twenty percent or less and 247 00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:35,920 Speaker 5: a group of American companies, three of them come in 248 00:13:36,040 --> 00:13:39,880 Speaker 5: and take majority control. That includes, of course Oracle. The 249 00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:43,920 Speaker 5: question is what happens to all the proprietary technology involved 250 00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:46,959 Speaker 5: in that. For byte Dance their algorithm. Do they basically 251 00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:50,760 Speaker 5: set up a new platform for TikTok users in the 252 00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:54,600 Speaker 5: US and port everybody over, But you still need Byteedance 253 00:13:54,640 --> 00:13:57,480 Speaker 5: in their technology to do so, to help building it 254 00:13:57,640 --> 00:14:00,640 Speaker 5: at least, So how do you ring fence then US 255 00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:04,920 Speaker 5: users of TikTok, And that's been a key concern obviously 256 00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:08,160 Speaker 5: in the US politically is to do that. But byte 257 00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:11,240 Speaker 5: Dance obviously wants to still preserve its technology. So there 258 00:14:11,280 --> 00:14:14,079 Speaker 5: are some sort of slightly murky areas still in this 259 00:14:14,200 --> 00:14:17,040 Speaker 5: deal to be understood. But we'll hopefully hear more today 260 00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:20,160 Speaker 5: after seeing Trump talk and then presumably will come out 261 00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:22,040 Speaker 5: and announce more details of the deal. 262 00:14:23,720 --> 00:14:27,120 Speaker 3: This is Bloomberg Daybreak, your morning podcast on the stories 263 00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:30,160 Speaker 3: making news from Wall Street to Washington and beyond. 264 00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:32,840 Speaker 2: Look for us on your podcast feed by six am 265 00:14:32,920 --> 00:14:36,280 Speaker 2: Eastern each morning, on Apple, Spotify, or manywhere else you listen. 266 00:14:36,560 --> 00:14:39,360 Speaker 3: You can also listen live each morning, starting at five 267 00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:42,040 Speaker 3: am Wall Street Time on Bloomberg eleven three to zero 268 00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:45,000 Speaker 3: in New York, Bloomberg in ninety nine to one in Washington, 269 00:14:45,120 --> 00:14:49,000 Speaker 3: Bloomberg ninety two nine in Boston, and nationwide on serious 270 00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:50,760 Speaker 3: XM Channel one twenty one. 271 00:14:51,200 --> 00:14:51,480 Speaker 7: Plus. 272 00:14:51,560 --> 00:14:54,120 Speaker 2: Listen coast to coast on the Bloomberg Business App now 273 00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:56,720 Speaker 2: with Apple CarPlay and Android Atto interfaces. 274 00:14:57,040 --> 00:14:59,600 Speaker 3: And don't forget to subscribe to Bloomberg and News Now. 275 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:02,400 Speaker 3: It's the latest news whenever you want it in five 276 00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:05,480 Speaker 3: minutes or less.
