美国联邦通信委员会宣布豁免外资所有权限制规则,允许来自沙特阿拉伯、卡塔尔和阿布扎比的三个主权财富基金合计拥有派拉蒙-华纳兄弟公司49.5%的股份1。这一决定实质上将外资所有权上限从25%提升至49.5%1。
在FCC主席布伦丹·卡尔的任期内,该机构频繁对美国媒体机构施加压力,包括威胁ABC电视台、试图阻止其播放民主党人采访,以及审查深夜脱口秀主持人1。评论指出这种政策差异反映出一种矛盾立场:FCC对美国国内节目内容和采访选择高度关注,却对外国政府实质性控制美国主要媒体集团采取了宽松态度1。
The Federal Communications Commission has granted an exemption to foreign ownership restrictions, permitting sovereign wealth funds from Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and Abu Dhabi to collectively hold 49.5 percent of Paramount-Warner Bros 1. This decision marks a significant increase from the previous foreign ownership cap of 25 percent 1.
Under FCC Chair Brendan Carr's leadership, the agency has pursued an inconsistent regulatory approach, frequently threatening American media outlets while adopting a lenient stance toward substantial foreign government control of U.S. media conglomerates 1. The Commission has repeatedly warned ABC Television, sought to prevent the network from airing interviews with Democratic figures, and scrutinized late-night talk show hosts 1. This apparent disparity in enforcement priorities has drawn criticism from observers who question the regulatory logic behind stricter oversight of domestic editorial decisions while permitting foreign government entities to acquire major ownership positions in American media companies 1.
