In broadcast TV, the "equal time rule" requires networks to offer opposing candidates an equal amount of airtime.  

It's important to note that Carr has previously been less strict when it comes to talk radio. The same rules apply, yet Carr reportedly said he doesn't see a reason to inflict warnings on the medium popularly used by conservative voices.

Notably, CBS has denied barring the Late Show from airing the interview. 

“The show was provided legal guidance that the broadcast could trigger the FCC equal-time rule for two other candidates, including Rep. Jasmine Crockett, and presented options for how the equal time for other candidates could be fulfilled,” CBS told Variety in a statement.
