StopSinclair.org to Protest at White House Friday
U.S. Newswire ^ | 10/21/04

Contact: Sally Aman or Jenny Brennan, 202-544-7881 or 703-919-6292 (cell), aman@a2pr.com or brennan@a2pr.com, both for StopSinclair.org

News Advisory:

-- StopSinclair.org to Protest at White House Friday

-- Delivers $9 million check from Sinclair to Bush, along with 150,000 signatures demanding halt of program

-- Sinclair Broadcast Constitutes Illegal In-Kind Contribution to Bush Campaign

WHO: StopSinclair.org, a Running For Change Political Action Committee campaign, leads both the online and grassroots charge against Sinclair Broadcasting Group. Joining forces with America Coming Together and democratic blogs, they are protesting Sinclair's actions and making their position known to President Bush, Sinclair and its advertisers.

WHAT: StopSinclair.org supporters will protest Sinclair's revised attack ad format: A POW Story: Politics, Pressure and the Media, due to air Friday evening, by delivering to the White House 150,000 signatures demanding the halt of the hour-long attack ad along with a check symbolizing the $9,900,000 illegal in-kind contribution Sinclair is effectively making to the Bush campaign.

WHEN: 12 p.m., Friday, Oct. 22

WHERE: Lafayette Park at Intersection of 16th and H Street

WHY: Despite altering the program's format, Sinclair Broadcasting's decision to air excerpts from Stolen Honor, an anti-Kerry piece funded by conservative activists, during an hour- long so-called "news" segment entitled A POW Story: Politics, Pressure and the Media is a partisan exploitation of public airwaves. StopSinclair.org is calling attention to the fact that Sinclair Broadcasting is directly contributing $9,900,000 to the Bush campaign by airing this Anti-Kerry advertisement.

Kerry & Edwards have proven themselves to be the anti-free speech candidates this year. It's a mystery what these people are protesting other than the fact that they don't agree with the content of the program. The dems. have diluted their power of protest with these ill-founded attacks.

The best thing for people to do is to buy Sinclair stock, which is what I would do... if I had any cash. It has been at a low lately and will probably skyrocket shortly after a bush win.

How good would the economy be doing if all these protesting losers went out and got real, productive jobs?

Ooooh! Symbolism! Let us all capitulate in the face of the devastating symbolism!

SUGGESTED EMAILS TO SEND TO THE LISTED EMAIL ADDRESSES, UNDER THE TITLE, "WHAT ABOUT FREE SPEECH?"

It seems the Left is all in favor of free speech until it's speech of which it doesn't approve.

Looks as though you're concerned your guy won't get elected once people learn the truth of his record.

In my darker moments, I long for an American Pinocet. I certainly hope it never comes to that...

Sinclair only became an issue last week. How in the h$ll could a "grassroots" protest spring up ijn that time? These fascists really stink.

I have to admit I've never heard of Sinclair till everyone started talking about this. They don't seem to have any affiliates in GA.

This needs a good FReep by the D.C. Chapter. You guys can mess up their little party real good!

I'd like to see a real good "street theater" response to this, with several veterans in their old uniforms showing up bound and gagged, with a banner saying "Kerry Says No Free Speech For Veterans".
