Broadcast groups oppose AI regs.

Major broadcast groups, including MG, Nexstar, and Gray, oppose the FCC’s proposed regulations on AI-generated content in political ads, citing concerns about confusion and operational burdens for traditional media. They argue that the rules could push political advertisers to unregulated platforms, worsening the spread of deceptive content. Broadcasters like Cox Media Group and Nexstar claim the regulations infringe on First Amendment rights and are legally flawed due to the FCC’s lack of statutory authority. They emphasize that the broad definition of AI content and mandatory disclosures would disrupt programming and disadvantage broadcasters while leaving online platforms unchecked.
