As a Vietnam Vet, I really wanted the message of “Stolen Honor” to be presented, and I was rooting for Sinclair Broadcasting for being willing to show the documentary in spite of intense pressure to not air “Stolen Honor’. My view is that Sinclair wasted my time, other news shows have presented clearer and certainly more professional editorials on the influence of Vietnam and the media in the 2004 election. Worse than a waste of time, Sinclair’s failure to deliver the show expected, makes Sinclair simply another carpetbagger network that can’t be trusted.
yep msm again
if you want to see stolen honor go to their webpage you can view it for free...
I just finished watching Stolen Honor for free on their website and John Kerry better hope this is not shown
The powers that be (and I don't mean the democrates) must have layed the law down.
Not only that, they hyped up the 10 PM news with "stories and opinions of POWS", 2 of 3 people said it doesn't matter what happened, we must look forward". This added insult to injury. I agree with you, we were duped, I felt like I was watching another CBS, boy was Sinclair intimidated. The DNC must really carry a BIG stick!!!God help us. I am really starting to not like America anymore.
They spent plenty of time disseminating Sen. Rice-in-the-ass's Vietnam service and then threw is some weird crap about nobody knowing the full story of President Bush's National Guard service. There's all kinds of information out there confirming that President Bush more than fulfilled his Guard obligations.
Amateurish is the perfect word.
I hear it was a pro-Kerry ad more than anything, typical media. Shame on Sinclair

It is devastating. It's no wonder why Kerry and Mainstream Media don't want this shown.
I've heard from friends who watched the Sinclair crap and that's exactly what they called it - crap. Sinclair folded. And the American people are the losers.
Hell, where I live (Johnstown, PA), it was advertised on the TV guide, but when we tuned to that station (8 Fox), it was some video show. They didn't even air it!! Glad I downloaded the video on line. I'll be watching it tomorrow.
Just a trick to get some Reps to watch their garbage huh?
damn!!!!
Here is the copy of an email I just received from a friend who just saw "Stolen Honor."
"Just sick about this! Poorly done. Looked like some high school put-together video project. Some highlights in beginning, good interviews - lots of slaps against the Dems. and showed how paranoid they have been about this airing. But it looked like they let the Kerry people do the last 3/4 of it. Don't know if you saw it but here's my take and I tried to be objective.
Some very emotional stuff that showed how "heroic" Kerry was....leaning on his wounded arm, reaching down to pull out a fellow soldier while under fire....boats manuevering around, man going under water a few times, etc. Very dramatic. Would give fuel to the Kerry fans. No mention of Kerry not releasing all his military record
Parts referencing Bush were anti-climatic, rehashing of old question about AWOL. No serious retort to that. Little bit about his flight time record.
All in all, If one were a Kerry fan this would have been uplifting.
May not have done Bush any harm, but sure didn't wound Kerry either.
What a waste of my Friday night. I should have gone to Wal Mart! Or, hmmmm, had fun with my husband instead."

You cowards! You made the country believe that you were going to do a POW case against Kerry. You have betrayed all of veterans! Your puff piece, anti-war drivel was a disgrace. You betrayers of our trust and hope.
THis story is everywhere! I couldn't see the sinclair version since we don't get that here, but from what I'm reading..........holy CHIT! Funny it's airing on a Friday...Talk radio, Hannity and all the rest can't say anything about it tomorrow......
Trying to expose the Vietnam-era Kerry was a mistake from the very beginning. Swing-voters and undecideds just don't care that much; all they come away with is that one man went and the other one didn't. It might have worked in any other election, but not this one.
Tell the creeps at Sinclair what you think of their hatchet job on the Vietnam vets and POW's, I already did, it made me feel only slightly better, but at least I did it.
