Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has filed a complaint with the Federal Election Commission accusing CNN of violating federal campaign finance law by “colluding” with the Trump and Biden campaigns on debate criteria that excluded him.
According to the complaint, CNN worked with the two major party candidates to carve out debate qualifications that pre-determined that Mr. Biden and Mr. Trump would be the sole participants.
“The available evidence leads to the clear conclusion that CNN is making prohibited corporate contributions to both campaigns and the Biden Committee and Trump Committee have accepted these prohibited corporate contributions, resulting in violations of federal campaign finance law,” Kennedy campaign attorney Lorenzo Holloway said in a letter to the FEC’s acting general counsel.
