Reclaiming the Gatekeepers of Truth and Democracy in a Post-Citizens United Age.

📘 Book Title:

How the FCC Failed the USA
The Hidden Collapse of America's Information Gatekeeper and What We Must Do to Restore It

Author: HASE Fiero
Product Description:

What happens when the gatekeeper walks away?

In How the FCC Failed the USA, author and public thinker HASE Fiero delivers a powerful exposé on how the Federal Communications Commission — once a pillar of democratic integrity — abandoned its founding mission, and how that failure left the American public vulnerable to disinformation, manipulation, and erosion of trust in the digital age.

From the repeal of the Fairness Doctrine to the floodgates opened by Citizens United, from the deregulation of media empires to the FCC’s silence in the face of algorithmic propaganda, this meticulously researched book takes you through a chilling timeline of institutional surrender.

But this isn’t just a chronicle of collapse — it’s a blueprint for renewal.

In its final chapters, Fiero lays out a bold vision for what a modern FCC could look like: one capable of regulating digital platforms, restoring balanced discourse, and protecting sovereignty in an age of artificial intelligence and information warfare.

If you’ve ever wondered why our national conversation feels broken — and what it would take to fix it — this book is your answer.
