What specific actions by CBS News triggered the FCC investigation, and what are the immediate consequences for the network?

FCC Chairman Brendan Carr criticized CBS News for releasing a transcript of an interview with Vice President Vance but not one with Vice President Harris, prompting an FCC investigation into potential news distortion. The FCC released the raw transcript and footage from the Harris interview, revealing CBS aired only portions of her response to a question about Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu. CBS News subsequently released the full transcript and footage, claiming no deception.
