Stolen Honor: Sinclair Under Fire
worm eater writes "The Sinclair Broadcasting Group, in its latest politically charged move, has announced that it will air a 90-minute anti-Kerry documentary a week before the election. The video, 'Stolen Honor: Wounds That Never Heal,' was funded by a group of Pennsylvania POWs that has merged with the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth. Sinclair, which is the largest TV broadcasting group in the nation, has 62 affiliates, many in swing states. It made news in April by refusing to let any of its affiliates air an edition of Nightline in which Ted Koppel read the names of US soldiers who had died in Iraq, saying the broadcast was politically motivated. Predictably, liberal blogs are fighting back."
Damn those liberals that control the media! This is just a vast conspiracy to distort Bush's record and try to get Kerry into office by bringing up stuff that happened decades ago. Can't they let the DWI arrest and the Guard service stories die?
Geesh. And all this time I never believed the stories about the "liberal media".
I want peace on earth and goodwill toward man.
We are the United States Government! We don't do that sort of thing.
A hatchet job on Bush was already televised. I think it was called "The First Debate"
I hate my sig.
Did anyone else read the headline and think the same thing?
Once again, we get the violence vs sex disconnect in the States; If you're President, you can get a hatchet job, but you can't get a blow job.
Vintage computer games and RPG books available. Email me if you're interested.
That's right. Sinclair is just doing this to balance all the stations that are broadcasting Fahrenheit 9/11 and Going Upriver.
Here's a list of those stations:
