   Brendan Carr, who was picked by President Trump to chair the Federal   
   Communications Commission, said he's ordering an investigation into the   
   Walt Disney Co. and its ABC television network over concerns that they are   
   "promoting invidious forms of DEI discrimination," referring to diversity,   
   equity and inclusion practices.   
      
   In a letter to Disney CEO Robert Iger, Carr said the FCC's Enforcement   
   Bureau will review whether Disney or ABC have violated any FCC equal   
   employment opportunity regulations. He added that the probe will apply to   
   both past and current policies.   
      
   "Numerous reports indicate that Disney's leadership went all in on   
   invidious forms of DEI discrimination a few years ago and apparently did   
   so in a manner that infected many aspects of your company's decisions,"   
   Carr wrote on Thursday.   
      
   The inquiry comes after Disney scaled back its diversity efforts, either   
   by dropping certain initiatives or softening language around DEI.
