WASHINGTON — Republicans continued to criticize President Joe Biden’s nominee for the Federal Communications Commission at a hearing Wednesday that concluded with Democrats still supporting her.
Nominee Gigi Sohn pushed back as Republican senators used the Commerce Committee hearing to question whether her earlier involvement in FCC policy and criticism of Fox News were disqualifying.
Sohn, who would give the Democrats a majority on the commission if confirmed, said she’d been “subject to unrelenting, unfair and outright false criticism and scrutiny.”
