In addition, and more shockingly, we have received threats of retribution from a member of Senator John Kerry's campaign and have seen attempts by leading members of Congress to influence the Federal Communications Commission to stop Sinclair from broadcasting this news special.

Shocking? Welcome to the party.

[knak]

I wish it was coming to Idaho!

[austinaero]

Do I understand this correctly..Sinclair is going to air a special about not only the POw'S,,but about the left's attempts to shut it down during this election???

WAyyy coool!

[cgk]

I wish it was coming to my town, too... but this place is considered a lock for Kerry so they won't bother.

[hipaatwo]

HOT DAMN!!!

[knak]

I'm in Bush country. But I'd still love to see it. I'm expecting a live thread.

[cgk]

That's how I read it also... at first I was thinking they caved to MASSIVE BOYCOTTS (hah) but reading the article - it looks like it should be an interesting take on the election circus. They even have a quote on their website about it - and about the threats.

[Woogit]

I'm glad I was wrong!!! I obviously misunderstood what Cavuto said.

[The Ghost of FReepers Past]

Sounds fair to me. Kerry and Co. should be ashamed of themselves.

[cgk]

This SHOULD blow up in Kerry Camp's face.. here's to hoping.

The news special will focus in part on the use of documentaries and other media to influence voting, which emerged during the 2004 political campaigns, as well as on the content of certain of these documentaries. The program will also examine the role of the media in filtering the information contained in these documentaries, allegations of media bias by media organizations that ignore or filter legitimate news and the attempts by candidates and other organizations to influence media coverage.

We will not tire, We will not fail,
We WILL take down Hanoi Kerry Nov 2

[nuffsenuff]

This was an elaborate publicity stunt.

Whoever the marketing director is at Sinclair is a genius.

[The Ghost of FReepers Past]

I get to see it. Yeessssss!

[Truth Table]

heheehe...

Take that NYT

[austinaero]

God bless those POw'S BUT this new edge to the Sinclair story makes it even HARDER for the DEMS to screech about it....hehehe,,,,,,

and hopefully it will expose all the major players and their attempts and effecting the outcome of the election.

I would say this topic is VERY newsworthy....

Go Sinclair!!

[Shqipo]

I'm glad that they're airing it all on one day rather than piecemeal, as this will make it a specific TV event that can get buildup and be covered as a single story. Unfortunately it's airing on a Friday. Hope they stick it to those who tried to shut it down.

[cgk]

I concur... this is just brilliant:

While the news special will discuss the allegations surrounding Senator John Kerry's anti-Vietnam War activities in the early 1970s raised by a number of former POWs in "Stolen Honor," it will do so in the context of the broader discussion outlined above. The program will be hosted by Jeff Barnd, the Emmy award-winning co-anchor of Fox 45's 10:00 News which airs on WBFF-TV, Sinclair's flagship station in Baltimore, Maryland.

Joe DeFeo, Sinclair's Vice President of News, commented that, "As with all news programming produced by Sinclair's News Central, `A POW Story' is being produced with the highest journalistic standards and integrity. We have not ceded, and will not in the future cede, control of our news reporting to any outside organization or political group. We are endeavoring, as we do with all of our news coverage, to present both sides of the issues covered in an equal and impartial manner."

[hipaatwo]

YOU WILL DO A LIVE THREAD RIGHT??!! please.

[nuffsenuff]

They get to expose how Kerry's lies hurt the POWs AND rip on people like Michael Moore who try to influence elections with lies!

Can you say "TWOFER"!!!!

This is just AWESOME!
