WASHINGTON (Reuters) – Conservative advocacy groups on Thursday asked the Federal Communications Commission to reject a complaint over CBS’s “60 Minutes” interview with then-Vice President Kamala Harris.

The Center for Individual Freedom, Americans for Tax Reform, Taxpayers Protection Alliance and other groups called on FCC Chair Brendan Carr to end the investigation into the unit of Paramount Global, saying an “adverse ruling against CBS would constitute regulatory overreach and advance precedent that can be weaponized by future FCCs.”
