Dems Slam Anti-Kerry TV Broadcast (They can but We can't?)

WASHINGTON — The Democratic Party and 18 senators are objecting to a broadcasting company's plan to air on 62 TV stations a critical documentary about John Kerry's (search) anti-war activities after he returned home from Vietnam three decades ago. Sinclair Broadcast Group (search) has asked its television stations — many of them in competitive states in the presidential election — to pre-empt regular programming to run the documentary as part of an hourlong program two weeks before the Nov. 2 election. Based near Baltimore, the company owns or manages affiliates of major broadcast networks in several states, including Ohio, Florida and Pennsylvania. Mark Hyman, a vice president of corporate relations for Sinclair who also is a conservative commentator for the company, said Monday the show would contain some or all of the 42-minute film as well as a panel discussion of some sort. He said final details had not been worked out. The documentary, "Stolen Honor: Wounds That Never Heal (search)," chronicles Kerry's 1971 testimony before Congress and links him to activist and actress Jane Fonda. It includes interviews with Vietnam prisoners of war and their wives who claim Kerry's testimony — filled with "lurid fantasies of butchery in Vietnam" on the part of U.S. troops — demeaned them and led their captors to hold them longer. The Democratic National Committee planned to file a complaint with the Federal Election Commission on Tuesday contending that Sinclair's airing of the film should be considered an illegal in-kind contribution to President Bush's campaign. Also, 18 Democratic senators sent a letter to the Federal Communication Commission asking that it investigate whether Sinclair's plan was an improper use of public airwaves.

I found the following article on foxnews.com (please forgive me). There have been three threads about "Stolen Honor" already, but I think this article might deserve extra FReeper attention. We can't allow Liberal control of the MSM to squelch the truth again. This is the first article I've ever posted, please be gentle with me. --Laurita

Looks fine to me Little Laura. We can't do enough to keep this psycho traitor away from the White House.

I so wish we could see it here in WA state, (like in the People's republic of Seattle). Fat chance of that!

[Question Liberal Authority]

If there was anything unseemly about John Kerry's anti-war record, I'm sure it would have been broadcast on 60 Minutes by now.

[West Coast Conservative]

Does anyone know the states it will be shown in?

[Jet Jaguar]

Good post. Keep it up!

[Laurita]

so far, so good. Thanks!

Does anyone know the states it will be shown in?

For the Democrats, I hope it's confusion, panic and disarray.

Drat! I wish I knew how to post pictures! You will find a graphic showing Sinclair Broadcast Group's stations at the following:

I'm not saying they will broadcast from every one, but it's a pretty sure bet they won't broadcast somewhere they don't have a station.

good one..

Busan is beautiful. The weather is lovely. Everything else is up in the air until after Nov. 2. I think I'll either evolve into a higher being or explode from the anticipation and stress.

Looks like the Dems want to silence the POW's again

SHAME ON THEM!

For the production of the Stolen Honor documentary, interviews were conducted with 17 Vietnam POWs whose time in prison amounted to 109 years and three months. These distinguished, highly decorated individuals share their experiences and perspective in this compelling program.

Don't worry never mind about YOUR grammar and comma use. :-)

RANT: Everyone, please note the HIGHJACKING
by the DEMOCRAT - I say again, DEMOCRAT party

of the word DEMOCRATIC.
The media and the party are calling themselves the DEMOCRATIC PARTY.
I have noticed this increasingly over the last few months.

Please call the MSM on this whenever you see it. Rant finished, thank you, and thank you Laurita. Norski.

Meet the POW's...

The Dem Party doesn't want us to meet them ... nor to remember these POW's

The Dem Party is a Disgrace

LOL - There's a lot of that going around lately.
