“I don’t trust that the FCC will address anything but there is a Senate Oversight Committee with a subcommittee for Media. I recommend people contact the senator or the senate member(s) of the committee & request an investigation into FoxNews & Brian Kilmeade’s statements calling for the execution of the homeless.”
Here’s a link to the Committee members:
