In Philadelphia, CBS has a rodeo.
outstanding!
Ah, so it wasn't actually being shown in lieu of football?
Not a disaster then.
Nah, no way they could get up the money. Most likely, all these stations are now showing it at times when viewer demographics show nobody will be watching it as type of public service announcement. To show they ARE NOT Gestapo-ing the 1st Amendment rights of everyone but left-wingnuts.
If we make any more complaints about the bomb threats used to keep Stolen Honor from the public, all the networks will get right together and say, with a lot or phony righteous indignation, that they DID show it.
I'm watching a rodeo on Local 6. What happened?
It ended about 1:30. I just caught the tail end.
Darn! Thanks for the post.
that is a bit of a stunner.
only conservatives are out doing things like cutting lawns and raking leaves. liberals either have enough money to hire somebody to do this kind of work, or will let the wind take care of the leaves. so i suspect more liberals are in the house actually watching this. that IS the target audience, isn't it?
It was just on here in Phoenix, AZ
Maybe Ashcroft cut CBS a deal...air Stolen Honor just before the election and he won't press charges for the memo and Rathergate. Who knows?
Oh my. I just scanned the channels to see if I could find it. Univision has women wearing nothing but body paint, just painted bikinis. I guess I am going to have to program out Univision.
Interesting turn of events here!
CBS here is showing College Football News.
SEC on CBS just starting.
Go FREEpers!
Stolen Honor is now playing in the Las Vegas area on Cox channel 51, PAX, at 3:40 PM PST

Hi Friends and Fam,
After this I won't bug you with any more election stuff, but the film "Stolen Honor" which the Kerry campaign has tried to suppress by lawsuit and intimidation, will finally air Sunday night, 11pm local time, in most of the US.
In 1971, it was certainly John Kerry's right to embark on an anti-Vietnam War crusade. I marched against the war myself, before Kerry did, and before I was drafted and ended up as a medic. But Kerry's tactic was to smear the Vietnam veterans as war criminals. Teaming up with "Captain" Al Riddle (later shown to have been a phoney who was never in Vietnam) and Jane Fonda, he claimed that pretty much everyone was involved in war crimes. Using his money and powerful political connections, he promoted the slander that many soldiers were involved in rape, torture, murder, cutting off of ears and hands and heads.
When the returning vets came home, There were few welcomes, but lots of cold stares, cold shoulders and cold hearts. The image of the deranged Vietnam vet was a common theme in popular TV and movies. There are a large number of Vets that have struggled to get past this. In 1988, Jane Fonda had the grace to apologize for the reputations that had been damaged and to the families that had been hurt.
But John Kerry has never apologized. Many Americans seem puzzled about what's eating the "Swift Boat Vets," but it's all pretty simple. Kerry spent his unusually brief tour of duty in Vietnam (4 months, vs. 12-24 for most of them) with the Swifties. So the charges were especially directly against them. They were enraged back then, and now they see that their Great Accuser wants to be their President and they are mad all over again.
You can see "Stolen Honor," Sunday night , (11pm local in most cases) on :
