I hope that gas station received “historic preservation” status.

Sinclair Broadcasting was founded by members of the Smith family from Baltimore. Julian Smith’s sons run it now and they are good patriotic conservatives. I watch their first station, the UHF WBFF (now “FOX 45”) for the morning news, weather, and traffic to the exclusion of the other MSN network affiliates. These guys could build a cable channel to kill (or at least severely wound) FOX.

He is a leftist activist and writer in Maine. Big deal on the Notey Fox
http://www.notey.com/blogs/fox
where leftists go to get their marching orders on how to attack Fox news and Trump.

There is nothing independent about this man, and the broadcasts are a breath of fresh air in Maine’s leftist news and broadcast swamp.

Before this new gig, Epshteyn appeared on PBS as an occasional guest analyst. He caught my attention as a breath of fresh air. Sinclair ran the Swift Boat documentary shortly before the 2004 non-election of John Kerry.
Lots to like here!

Are they going to go after OANN next? OANN runs regular, patriotic, pro-American segments, in between their shows.

Can we go after/scrutinize Fake News Media (CNN, et al) for their 24/7 anti-Trump segments?

Oh,STFU hypocrite! That's priceless! In the perfect liberal/"progressive" world America would resemble the Soviet Union and I have a guess who would end up in Siberia for violations of speech.

So here’s an idea. Make $50,000,000 and but a TV station. Run it successfully and if you choose, film some Must run segments of your own giving your opinion.

What? Don’t have $50,000,000 to buy a TV station?

Bummer. Shut up then

And by the way, I happen to really like the Sinclair Broadcasting affiliate in Baltimore. They are more even handed and professional than the others.
