Directly from the FCC.gov website:
Summary
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) is an independent United States government agency, directly responsible to Congress.
The FCC answers to congress. The president can appoint commissioners (if their existing 5 year terms are up) but only 3 can be from the same party.
The president can and does push his own agendas on lots of things, but implying that he has total control over FCC witch hunts is just stretching it a bit for me. Thinking that either party would change what is going on and risk their election chances stretches it a bit further. YMMV
