Federal Communications Commission Chairman Brendan Karr has warned that US news networks could be revoked if they do not change their reporting on the Iran war and act in the public interest.

He accused the channels of spreading propaganda and fake news. Trump and his Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth have made similar allegations.
