It's a lie. Sinclair is doing just as it has said all along it would do.
Are you sure?
I hope you're right.
That is good. Because they got to figure, with a creature like Kerry, if he were to win he'd come after them anyway even if they DIDN'T show it. He'd be out for revenge just because they raised the mere spectre of airing it.
The MSM is trying to undo the unexpected publicity they gave Stolen Honor last week. They want people to think its not being aired. Something like.. "move along folks there's nothing to see here".
TV stations told to pull plug on anti-Kerry film
By Mark Memmott, USA TODAY
A media company that had planned to broadcast much of a film that attacks Sen. John Kerry on its 62 TV stations significantly changed its plans Tuesday amid protests from some of its shareholders and Kerry's supporters.
The company Sinclair Broadcast Group of Hunt Valley, Md. didn't immediately satisfy its most vocal critics. But the change seems to make it less likely that the program will be mostly devoted to the anti-Kerry film.
Sinclair's management had told managers of its stations three weeks ago to plan to broadcast a program devoted almost entirely to the controversial film Stolen Honor, Wounds that Never Heal. The film accuses Sen. John Kerry of betraying his fellow Vietnam War veterans, particularly prisoners of war, by protesting that war after he returned home in 1969.
On Tuesday, the Sinclair plan was partly responsible for threats of legal action from some shareholders. They're upset about a sharp drop in the company's stock, which they say was partially due to the controversy over Stolen Honor. Sinclair's stock closed Tuesday at $6.26. It has fallen more than 50% this year.
But late Tuesday afternoon, Sinclair announced that this Friday most of its stations will air "a special one-hour news program entitled A POW Story: Politics, Pressure and the Media." It said the program "will focus in part on the use of documentaries and other media to influence voting." Sinclair said portions of Stolen Honor would be shown, but only as part of "the broader discussion" about the media.
