WASHINGTON, Feb. 5 -- The Senate Commerce, Science and Transportation Committee issued the following information for a hearing entitled "We Interrupt This Program: Media Ownership in the Digital Age" at 10 a.m. on Feb. 10, 2026, at 253 Russell Senate Office Building:
This hearing will examine the Federal Communications Commission's current broadcast media ownership rules--particularly one rule limiting a single broadcaster from reaching beyond 39 percent of U.S. television households nationwide--in light of today's evolving media landscape. As more Americans consume video content through streamingservices and social media, the original intent of media ownership rules--to promote competition and diversity by limiting the number of media outlets a single entity may own--warrants review. Some telecommunications experts contend, however, that the current 39 percent cap is statutory, meaning it can only be changed by an act of Congress and not through regulation. Other critics worry possible changes to media ownership rules will result in fewer conservative voices on broadcast television.
Upon announcing the hearing, Sen. Cruz said:
"The media market is changing rapidly, leading many to wonder if broadcast media ownership rules should reflect this new reality. This hearing is an important opportunity to discuss whether existing rules are legally sound, antiquated, or need to be updated to promote competition and protect against corporate censorship against conservatives."
Witnesses:
* Mr. Chris Ruddy, Chief Executive Officer, Newsmax
* Mr. Curtis LeGeyt, President and Chief Executive Officer, National Association of Broadcasters
