SINCLAIR Lauds The New York Times "comments" and Thanks Sen Kerrys "campaign" for their help

We welcome your comments regarding the special news event “A POW Story: Politics, Pressure and the Media,” Sinclair’s third news special of 2004. The program aired on 40 television stations around the country on Friday, October 22, 2004. The program dealt with a variety of topics including the allegations made by 13 American POWs – including two Medal of Honor winners – about their captivity in North Vietnam. All viewpoints were included in this documentary.

We would like to thank the Kerry Campaign for its participation during the private discussions that took place over a period of weeks. Through the recommendations of senior Kerry Campaign officials, several people closely allied with Senator John Kerry, including his close friend of 40-years and his co-editor of “The New Soldier,” George Butler, participated in the news special.

I watched the Sinclair production and the Stolen Honor video online. The Sinclair production was a disgrace.

I can't believe we all fell for this. I don't believe they ever intended to show this film. They wanted to cause lots of flap to gain attention and get people to watch. They baited us and then switched.

They were forced to drink the Kool Aid. The production values on it made the cheapest infomercial look like it was filmed by an award winning cinematographer. I have a feeling the fix was in before it even was announced.

Yes, and I was extremely disappointed with the show. It probably didn't change anyone's opinion of Kerry one way or the other.

I had been looking forward to seeing it all week.

I thought it started out fine, but anything damaging to Kerry was pretty much brief and near the beginning making to easy enough to forget.

Hardly an expose of this treacherous man. I was very disappointed that Sinclair felt the need to accommodate the Kerry camp.

I will say, though, at least the people they had speaking on Kerry's behalf did not come across as geniune, real, honest people, as did the men exposing Kerry's evil.

It should be the other way around. sKerry should be thanking Sinclair.

I haven't been following this story too closely. Did Sinclair greatly edit 'Stolen Honor' or was the Sinclair production something completely different than 'Stolen Honor'?
