Contemporary Democrats hate reality. It limits them, frustrates their plans, and doesn\u2019t fill their bank accounts. Accordingly, they create their own reality and try to force everyone else to live in it. The more outlandishly insane their created reality, the more they defend it.<\/p>

Such is the case with Disney, a former entertainment company that has, by ignoring the realities of economics and the expectations of its audience, all but obliterated two of the most popular and lucrative entertainment franchises in history: Star Wars and Marvel. And now, Disney is imagineering reality again. It has filed a petition with the Federal Communications Commission claiming that the shrill, notoriously leftist, Trump and Normal American-hating ABC daytime scream fest, The View, is a legitimate news program.<\/p>\n

This is not satire. Disney really did that: \u00a0<\/p>\n

\n

According to documents filed with the Federal Communications Commission, Disney\u2019s Houston station KTRK-TV and ABC submitted a Petition for Declaratory Ruling on May 7, 2026.<\/p>\n

The petition requests official recognition of The View as a \u201cbona fide news interview program,\u201d comparable to traditional shows like Meet the Press or Face the Nation.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

FCC Chairman Brendan Carr responded:<\/p>\n

\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/p>\n

Graphic: X Post<\/p>\n

To clarify, here\u2019s the reality Disney is trying to get the FCC to ignore:<\/p>\n

\n

The reasoning behind the petition centers on an old broadcast law.<\/p>\n

Section 315 of the Communications Act of 1934 requires television stations to grant equal airtime opportunities to legally qualified political candidates.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

What this means is that if The View continues to feature leftists like Joe Biden, the law requires them to offer equal airtime to Republicans, like say\u2026Donald Trump. With Democrats in charge of the executive branch, which includes the FCC, Disney didn\u2019t have to worry about equal time. The co-hosts of The View could fly their leftist freak flags as much as they pleased. But with the 2026 mid-term elections and the 2028 presidential election looming, and a dearth of rational, eloquent, even sane Democrat candidates, The View would be in real trouble. The FCC under Trump would surely\u2014damn him\u2014enforce the law.<\/p>\n

The View would be able to prop up people like Kamala Harris\u2014again\u2014only so much. It was her bizarre answer about what she\u2019d do differently than Joe Biden\u2014she couldn\u2019t think of a thing\u2014on that show that helped doom her presidential hopes. And Disney is at least smart enough to know Republicans like JD Vance and Marco Rubio would make The View\u2019s hosts look like the dimwits they are. Desperate to feed The View\u2019s almost exclusively female audience the leftist red meat to which they\u2019ve become accustomed, and equally desperate to keep literate and eloquent Republicans away from that audience, Disney is pretending The View is a hard news program. Talk about warping reality.<\/p>

Ironic that Disney didn\u2019t care enough about the reality of the largely young male audience of Star Wars and the Marvel Universe to meet that audience\u2019s expectations, but they\u2019re absolutely desperate to recognize and serve the reality of a far smaller and far less profitable audience. One might almost think Disney recognizes The View not so much as entertainment, but as a necessary propaganda arm keeping affluent wine women on the Democrat reservation. That\u2019s one reality they\u2019re able and willing to recognize.<\/p>\n

\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/p>\n

As is required by law, the FCC is seeking public comments on whether The View is a legitimate news program and is thus exempt from the equal time requirement. That\u2019s rather like asking the public to opine on whether one gets wet while swimming, but that\u2019s real reality.<\/p>\n

In the meantime, The View will continue to produce hard-hitting news programming, like just how much of a Nazi is Trump anyway, and what\u2019s he doing to destroy \u201cour democracy\u201d today?<\/p>\n
