Stolen Honor/Sinclair a Bust

This production has not been well thought out, poorly edited and produced.

[snarkytart]

You are incorrect, this person is dead on. The Sinclair produced doc "A POW Story" is very sympathetic to Kerry.

Go reed my posts I am not a troll.

Come Monday, we ALL have to get this documentary (the apparently uncut version) out to everyone we know.

Burn it on DVD's

IM the link to co-workers

E-Mail the link to family

Do anything and everything to put this video in the hands of anyone that wants to put this skinny, vile pig of a man in office.

[Howlin]

Yes, I did watch it.

It doesn't suck; it's just not slash and burn.

Try to remember that the rest of the world isn't quite as strident about John Kerry as we are.

[Hillarys Gate Cult]

At least I can erase the tape of this.

[MizSterious]

I'm bashing it too. Give the guy a break--lots of us are disappointed.

[snarkytart]

reed meant "read"

[crushelits]

I agree.
I though this was about John Kerry's NON-service
"Stolesn Honor" there's nothing here.
No movie. It was supressed.
Sinclair, we are dissapointed.

[Just mythoughts]

The question was are you watching, or are you just cleaning up a preceived out of place poster???

[landman7]

Where in blazes do they get those "Vietnam Vets FOR Kerry"?
They're either liars or REMF's who never got even a smell of combat. Sorry 'bout that...

ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ....a big disappointment.

[Hendrix]

I was very disappointed in it. They did not show any of Stolen Honor (maybe 10 seconds). It is very obvious that Sinlcair backed down big time. The Kerry people spun his anti-war actions to the point where it looked like he did nothing wrong. It was a joke.

[gramho12]

Tes, FR helps lower my blood pressure!

[Howlin]

They're not EVER going to show a program that would be detrimental enough for us, Miz. Never.

[Cooltouch]

If Sinclair would have aired the video in its entirety without editorial doctoring, and then allowed the Kerry camp to respond, that would have been one thing. But apparently I was right -- even though I was hoping I wasn't, and even though I got slammed here for saying it. Dammit, I was right. Sinclair is apparently a bunch of linguini-spined cowards who decided to chop up the documentary and insert so much cognitive dissonance as to make it useless. Shame on them! SHAME! In the mean time, there are plenty of links around here on FR to the UNCUT and unadulterated version of the video where you can see for yourself. Pass it around to your liberal friends. It's a damn good video.

thanks for the welcome, I'm not a "newbie", just don't post.

[kaferhaus]

Thanks for the welcome

[Howlin]

Do you have a reading comprehension problem?

[rwilson99]

The production sucks. The interviews look edited to eliminate any pauses and seem unnatural. Worse, the interviews seemed to have been taped with the assumption they would be in response to a showing of Stolen Honor, when in fact they aren't.

News Central overpromised and under delivered. They allowed themselves to become the news, and failed to produce an interesting program.

While I can respect their attempt to be fair and balanced, they looked like scared little girlie men producing a high school news show.

Won't take these guys seriously again.

[CedarDave]

There appears to be some confusion. The Sinclair presentation is NOT Stolen Honor but instead a hit piece that gives more than equal time to Kerry's buddies, including the filmmaker that is suing Sinclair. There is a 200+ thread on how we were sandbagged by Sinclair here:

I watched PhiKapMom's download of Stolen Honor and it is very moving and a compelling adjustment of Kerry. Don't confuse the two.

[TheLurkerX]

Total crap. It's finally over, and it ended with a plea by Sinclair to have viewers contact the FCC and let them know that Sinclair is within their rights.

They called it a POW story, and they barely referenced the POW matter with John Kerry, or at all.

Total letdown, total piece of sh*t. Sinclair should have just canceled it and let people think Kerry derailed it. Instead, they apparently diluted it to the point where they can defend doing it in the first place.
