Well crap.... if they’re not meant to broadcast hoaxes then CNN should be bankrupted for the “Russia collusion” hoax!

This is for the broadcast TV stations who are ABC, NBC & CBS affiliated. TV stations with FCC licenses. Cable networks like CNN don't have to worry about this rule.

Most of the fake news is broadcast by CNN, MSNBC, etc. Those are "cable networks" and don't fall under the same rules as actual FCC licensed broadcast TV stations. For those ABC, NBC, CBS & PBS affiliate stations, broadcasting hoax information is met with a huge fine.
