10. My guess: this is being done for Sinclair's benefit

The Trump loving Sinclair broadcast company is the second largest owner of local television stations and the largest owner of ABC affiliates. I don’t know if those affiliate agreements are up for renewal but if they are this is an attempt by Carr to insert the FCC into the negotiations in order to financially benefit Sinclair. It is wildly inappropriate. And sadly unsurprising.
