Overview
Lee Petro has been featured in prominent media outlets, including Law360, Bloomberg, Communications Daily, and CNN where he shared insights on the potential regulatory landscape under the new presidential administration.
In Bloomberg and Mergers & Acquisitions Magazine, Lee discussed the implications of a Trump administration for broadcasters, noting, “Leniency for broadcasters will be a very real side effect of a Trump administration.” His analysis highlights the shifting regulatory expectations for the media sector. Additionally, in Law360, he elaborated on the anticipated rightward shift in FCC policies, while in Communications Daily, Lee correctly predicted that Brendan Carr would be assuming the chair, expressing, “I would be very surprised” if Carr was not appointed, based on longstanding expectations. In a CNN article on the effects of Trump’s presidency on media outlets, Lee said it’s “definitely possible” the DOJ reviews a future deal involving the spinoff cable channels “to cause pain” to those networks.
