Why do these idiots call us a DEMOCRACY? We are a REPRESENTATIVE REPUBLIC! At least it's supposed to work that way.

Posted many times before. This is a script which was given by management to all Sinclair TV stations to use. It’s a corporate thing.

Just as some people think there’s some sinister collusion when they hear the exact same news story on different stations. That’s because the lazy newsbums rip and read from the same AP wire.

This is what a media matters/George Soros disinformation campaign looks like. Yes, this is a script to be read by stations owned by Sinclair broadcasting, which controls a lot of local stations, but the script is exactly what you would expect a top down directive to news readers to look like, regardless of any bias or ‘mind control’. The reason this campaign is focusing on this video is to sow distrust, not to bring down corruption.

The aim of this campaign is to cause distrust in local news stations akin to the distrust local news watchers have for national cable news stations like CNN. Sinclair broadcasting committed the sin of not being sufficiently left wing, so it must be brought down.

Reject this contrived narrative. Most local media is controlled by national conglomerates, and most of them are left wing in their bias. Sinclair is being targeted because it isn’t parroting the anti-trump message. Comcast, Disney, Jeff Bezos, Berkshire Hathaway, Clear Channel, etc all get a pass on this same tactic because they want you to vote the ‘correct way’. Make up your own mind based on the content presented, not gimmicks.

The local news I’ve seen on Sinclair TV stations do indeed obnoxiously parrot CNN/MSNBC/NYT, et al.

FReepers, have you noticed Sinclair stations in your market being less hostile to the President than other stations?

I’ve never heard of Sinclair or what they actually do for broadcasting.

Sinclair is the largest owner/operator of television stations in America. Wiki says 173+ in 80 markets:

Even some republicans call the USA a democracy. It is as if they have never read the constitution.

I don’t think people are confusing a federal republic and the unitary state when they call America a democracy, they are just plain wrong, America is nowhere near being a democracy and neither are most of the other so-called democracies whether they are federal republics, unitary states or constitutional monarchies, or run by Putin for that matter. Maybe Hungary is a democracy (if you define a democracy as a place where the majority of citizens get to run the place the way they see fit).

No. They’re all rabid left. Sinclair deserves to go out of business just for that idiot leftist talking point of “threat to our democracy”

If this is an anti=Sinclair effort it is a total failure.

The reality is there is a meta-message.

You heard of those, right? The message about the message. The stuff McLuhan used to write about before everyone forgot who he was?

Virtually all media talking heads repeat the same stupid Mockingbird propaganda—Sinclair or otherwise.

Spell it slowly—M E T A M E S S A G E.

Remember the word—it comes in handy sometimes. :-)

Did you miss the point? They pegged the LSM in how they all get together with a pre-set meme and they all parrot it exactly the same way...
