Aug 26 (Reuters) - Federal Communications Commission Chairman Brendan Carr defended the agency's review approving Skydance Media's acquisition of Paramount Global as routine and in the public interest.
In a letter, Carr rejected Senator Richard Blumenthal's allegation that the timing and conditions reflected a quid pro quo tied to President Donald Trump's lawsuit settlement.
