New York, NY, Oct. 9 (UPI) -- A conservative U.S. broadcaster whose outlets reach one-quarter of the nation's TV viewers is airing a film that attacks John Kerry just before the election.
Sinclair Broadcast Group has ordered its 62 stations to preempt regular programming during primetime to air "Stolen Honor: Wounds That Never Heal," the Los Angeles Times reported Saturday.
The film, funded by Pennsylvania veterans and produced by a veteran and former Washington Times reporter, features former POWs accusing Kerry -- a decorated U.S. Navy veteran who later protested the war -- of worsening their ordeal by prolonging the conflict.
The one-hour special, which will be aired between Oct. 21 and Oct. 24 depending on the city, will be followed by a panel discussion to which Kerry will be invited, potentially satisfying fairness regulations, the Times reported.

I agree, this is just too important. Besides, what's wrong with telling the truth, who will be hurt by the truth but the spinner of the lie.
Drat! Nothing in the Philadelphia area.
A lie has made its way around the world before the truth gets out of bed.
Two stations in my area.
"Unfortunately, the documentary is 100% true and because of the way Sinclair is broadcasting it, it will be viewed as a political trick, compared to Moore's documentary and dismissed out of hand."
And how do you "tell the future" so well?
What stocks should I buy?
Who is going to the Supoer Bowl?
Yes! I am aware of this. It is exactly why I think it is a bad idea to do the same. I 100% do not approve of Moore doing this and is why I do not feel we should be doing it also. Having plans to show a pro-Bush documentary gets rid of any leverage there might be to prevent an anti-Bush documentary from being shown.
Michael "Fat Man" Moore's flick is now being shown on college campuses, they are pandering to get democRATic votes that way. We got to fight fire with fire. I have no problem with telling the world what I believe about Hanoi John. I'm a veteran against John F*ckin Kerry!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Still waiting for your stock picks.
Why are you disappointed?
It looks like it is on here in St. Louis. I will certainly watch if it is carried.

And your stock picks please.
Truth always gets their panties in a wad. But I understand a lot of them don't wear any.....so then what?
"DU's got their panties in a wad over this one."

Michael Moore will give them underwear, just for that purpose. (really!)
Can You Buy Votes With Underwear?
Michigan Republicans want local prosecutors to throw the book at Michael Moore, after the Fahrenheit 9/11 director doled out ramen and underwear to college students. The gifts were given in exchange for the students' promises to votenot necessarily for John Kerryin November. Is it illegal to bribe someone to vote, even if the person doing the bribing doesn't tell the bribee which candidate to choose?
Regardless of the briber's intentions, paying for turnout is illegal in federal elections.
