FCC chairman Ajit Pai was on the defense Thursday during a Senate oversight hearing when he was questioned about why he didn't correct the record earlier about an alleged cyberattack on the agency at the height of the controversial debate on net neutrality last year.

Pai defended his decision not to talk about the findings of an FCC inspector general report, which was released last week and determined there was no evidence that such an attack actually happened.
