The Federal Communications Commission is investigating the Walt Disney Company and its ABC unit over its diversity, equity and inclusion efforts.

The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has launched an investigation into The Walt Disney Company and ABC, focusing on their Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) initiatives. This inquiry was prompted by a complaint from the American Accountability Foundation (AAF), which alleges that Disney and ABC's DEI policies might violate federal anti-discrimination laws by potentially excluding certain groups based on race, color, or sex. The AAF's complaint specifically targets Disney's hiring practices and the content of its programming, suggesting that these practices could be discriminatory. The FCC's investigation aims to determine if these initiatives comply with federal regulations, potentially setting a precedent for how media companies implement DEI policies. Disney and ABC have not yet publicly responded to the notice of investigation.
