And if this was the New York Post scorning Michael Moore-on, we would hear all of the Rats crying about violations of the 1st amendment freedom of speech...they can give it, but they can't take it!

When the rats do it, it's freedom of speech. When our side does it...it's hate speech.

So, I guess Common Cause, et al,will be going after CBS for airing partisan political programming designed to effect the outcome of an election....oh, yes, a story that was COMPLETELY FALSE?

And if people watch Sinclair the advertisers will be there.

If David D. Smith, the CEO of Sinclair Broadcasting, knows what's good for him, he'll forget about airing a documentary critical of Democratic presidential contender Sen. John Kerry.

AIR THE DOCUMENTARY!

"The public airwaves should not be used by television executives to promote their partisan political agenda," Common Cause President Chellie Pingree told reporters in a telephone press conference. "This action crosses a line."

Then we need total reform is the current broadcast networks.

"The public airwaves should not be used by television executives to promote their partisan political agenda,"

I heard somewhere that Kerry is proud of his record. So what's the problem...

Whatever revenue Sinclair loses with leftist advertisers it will gain from conservative sponsors.

Kinda like the Left attacking Passion of The Christ.It really did not hurt Gibson's bottom line.

"I've decided I don't want to advertise on them," Adam Lee, the president of Lee Auto Malls, which owns 10 auto dealerships in Portland, Maine

Yet another public service by Sinclair: identifying advertisers who are on the wrong side of the issue.

I guess character still doesn't matter to these critics of Sinclair. It's interesting how the Bush DWI was OK to air last minute in 2000, because it showed that maybe Bush had something in his past to hide...but, something as minor as Kerry's treason and giving aid and comfort to the enemy in 1971, shouldn't be considered in 2004.

It's not about getting those licenses revoked, however – it's about employing a typical left-wing legal tactic: "Such challenges almost never result in lost licenses, but they often result in heavy legal costs for the station having to defend them," said the Times.

This is MSM blowhard-ese. "Heavy legal costs" do not occur until there is a HUGE number of critical comments filed at the station, or with the FCC. Typical Olde York Times misinformation, this.

New Yrok Times definitions:

If it's anti-American, anti-Christian, anti-family, anti-liberty, and/or anti-President Bush,then it's newsworthy.

If it's anti-Kerry, then it's politically charged propaganda, that must never be mentioned, and anyone who promotes it is evil and must be flayed!!!

SBGI is 6.49. Hitting its lows and from its charts looks like a usual trend, low in January.

I think I'll buy this morning.

"......."I've decided I don't want to advertise on them," Adam Lee, the president of Lee Auto Malls, which owns 10 auto dealerships in Portland, Maine,....."

The decent people of Portland, Maine should decide not to purchase a car from him wheen they need to buy one.

I know that I have bought my last union made vehicle and when I buy clothes, tools or anything else I look for anything on the tag that reads "Union Made". If I see those words, I put it back.

I am no stock Guru - but it looks to me like SBGI is a "BUY". There is a lot of emotional negatives priced into the price @ ~$6.50/share. It's had good earnings - beating the estimates by a good chunck.

I am going to buy some today - also, maybe the continued negative press will drive the price lower over the next few days......

Anyone have a quote from this PinHead when Dan Rather used forged documents from a known Bush hater to smear a Sitting President?

I didn't think so. They were probably to busy masterbating in jubilation over the "quality" of the investigation.
