7:10Now PlayingWhen FCC Chairman Ajit Pai collaborated with a Verizon Executive to create a comedy skit depicting him as a Verizon puppet, he probably never expected it to come back and bite him in the ass. But that's exactly what's happening now, as journalists are submitting Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests to obtain details about the skit in order to gauge how deep Ajit Pai's connection with Verizon goes. However, the FCC refused to hand over any information about the skit, saying such details would "harm" the agency. Clearly, Ajit Pai has something to hide if he won't even release details about a simple skit.
