The #FCC is investigating #SanFrancisco -based #KCBS for its coverage of #immigration enforcement actions in #SanJosé last month, sparking concerns from press freedom advocates and drawing #RightWing #backlash to the #radio station.
#KCBS is considered one of the world’s first rradio stations, and formative to #SiliconValley history. Its original license goes back to #CharlesHerrold in 1909 and his radio- #telephony system. Based in San Jose, it’s historically significant as #Marconi himself.
Attacking this station which survived through two world wars, the Great Depression, and led to the development of Silicon Valley is bound to have immense significance. They’re literally attacking the nation’s oldest broadcaster, which is integral to information and American democracy!
