The Kerry campaign also continued to attack the television stations. A spokesman, Chad Clanton, said in a statement: "Sinclair Broadcasting has a history of putting their own partisan politics ahead of honest journalism. We do hope they will reconsider their decision to help their friend, George W. Bush, by imposing false, negative attacks upon their viewers."
I didn't realize that Sinclair owned CBS! (SARCASM)
Remember these words, "Legg Mason", this was the POS company that started the slide on Sinclair stock prices. And I would sure like to get a list of the advertisers that pulled out.
Is there a new list of what channels are playing the film and when?
Since Sinclair maintains the same position they did from the outset (that they'd combine some portion of the film with other material, originally hoping to get Kerry himself to come out and address things) it's clearly a mere appearance that they're thrilled about here yet all the libs have done, it would seem, is generate intrigue & interest for the inevitable showings ROFLMAO
George Soros certainly has a lot of influence... Sorry George America is not for sale to the highest bidder... go back to Hungary.

If in fact Legg Mason jeopardized portfolios over this the SEC should fine the hell out of them and customers should sue for the lost values.
I don't have a list but I do remember that Burger King pulled their ads.
Dear Chad,
Remember what Serpent Head said about knee caps and Ken Starr?
It is such a tragic scene, liberal vultures picking over the carcass of a conservative film message of Truth about Kerry.
So the show will now air a significant portion of the documentary, plus a news story on the intimidation tactics of the Kerry campaign. Not bad.
The writer failed to quote the Sinclair executive that said this week that they NEVER planned to air the entire film.
The writer failed to reference the Sinclair website statemetn similar to the above.
The writer failed to reference the press release by Sinclair almost two weeks ago that said they would air segments accompanied by a discussion and Kerry was invited and they would have to wait for a K response before they could finalize the format.
The writer is just a democrat shill. But we already knew that, didn't we. Amazing (not on this thread) how many FR's have been taken in by the democrat spin.
So much for "freedom of speech" I am hoping this is still planning on running here. I even wrote the original date on my calendar so I wouldn't miss it.Any new lists on airing dates and channels?
Yes, and BK got an ear full yesterday from bloggers from this site. Flooded the lines so bad the couldn't keep up. Boy what fun.
I think the fact that the Kerry schmucks are referring to the former POW's, who served honorably and deserve to be heard more than anyone, as LIARS is news in and of itself. Who's going to report it? No one.
One was 'Burger King'
I wouldn't have heard about this if it wasn't for the local stations news broadcast stating something along the lines of, "Sinclair stock dropped over 8 percent today after Legg Mason stated the documentary could harm broadcast-deregulation efforts."
I just sound sad when I wish to express rage at the naive and foolish and lazy and dumb sheeple who refuse to obtain the facts about how and why we got to the point where Sinclair can offer a pro-conservative few minutes only to be attacked viciously by liberal scum.
