Friend,
Huge news: Late on Friday, we got word that Sinclair and Nexstar backed down and agreed to return Jimmy Kimmel Live! to the air — meaning that his show is back on in every part of the country. Make no mistake: This victory for the First Amendment happened because of you.
Free Press has been fighting this fight for more than two decades, and I can honestly tell you that what we saw in the past two weeks is one of the largest and fiercest mobilizations I have ever seen. People everywhere see who Brendan Carr is and how the Trump administration will stop at nothing in its authoritarian censorship campaign.
The fight is far from over. Will you stick with us?
We’re just a day away from our livestreamed coverage of the FCC’s monthly open meeting — and you can hear directly from our experts and advocates as we talk about Project 2025’s plans for the agency.
Hope you can check out this important conversation,
Candace and the rest of us at Free Press

Friend,
Each month, the FCC conducts an open meeting that members of the public can either attend in person or watch online. Free Press is no stranger to these meetings. We’ve witnessed — and spoken in opposition to — the twisted policymaking that Brendan Carr’s FCC attempts to push through. Trump’s cronies know the public doesn’t usually tune into bureaucratic proceedings, and they can take advantage of that lack of scrutiny. Starting now, we’re pulling back the curtain so everyone can see and understand the agency’s Project 2025-backed agenda.
Join our livestream coverage on Tues., Sept. 30, beginning at 9:30 a.m. ET!
Here are the details:
- WHAT: All Eyes on the Federal Censorship Commission
- WHEN: Tues., Sept. 30, at 9:30 a.m. ET
- WHERE: RSVP on StreamYard
- WHO: The Free Press crew of experts, analysts and advocates
- WHY: This is the first FCC open meeting since Brendan Carr delivered his mafioso threats in his scheme to pull Jimmy Kimmel off the air. The public deserves answers about the FCC chairman’s abuses of power, and Free Press will be there to get them. Join our live conversation as we explain and expose the inner workings of FCC policymaking.
This is too important to miss. Secure your spot today.
Hope you can make it to Tuesday’s livestream,
Heather and the rest of us at Free Press
