Isn't Sinclair protected by the same U.S. Constitution that protects ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, Michael Moore, Robert Scheer and their ilk?

[Patrick1]

No the constitution only applies to those who use forged documents and put it out as news, silly.

Isn't Sinclair protected by the same U.S. Constitution that protects ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, Michael Moore, Robert Scheer and their ilk?

But from the Liberal side.....it is a Living document that can be interpreted as needed............

[69ConvertibleFirebird]

...will announce a campaign to pressure Sinclair's advertisers with letters.

And liberals always seem to have plenty of time to write and send letters. They need real jobs.

(Unlike us Freepers who have time to post a lot...)

:)

[BJClinton]

I wonder what their feelings about CBS are?

[BMC1]

I guess free speech doesn't apply to anyone who isn't a left wing, socialist, liberal idiot.

They really need to get a life. I have never seen so many desperate people in all my life.

[GloriaJane]

The groups, led by Media Matters for America, (in their effort to silence the truth) today will announce a campaign to pressure Sinclair's advertisers..........

[26lemoncharlie]

Maybe we should follow there Lead an form our own coalition against CBS, ABC, NBC and CNN for not Fully covering the Iraqi War and using the airways for political purposes. Tit for Tat!

I keep on my blog a list of the 85 Senators and Congressmen (all Democrats) that signed the letter to the FCC requesting the suspension of Sinclair's broadcasting license for attempting to broadcast Stolen Honor. I keep posting it every month to keep this issue on the forefront.

I intend to use this list in the future any time one of them runs for re-election. These A$$HOLES attempted to suppress the free speach rights of decorated Vietnam veterans and POWs. Their liberal goon squad succeeded in intimidating Sinclair stockholders into watering down the Stolen Honor show until it was essentially useless.

[Diva Betsy Ross]

Sinclair made a huge mistake by backing down to the libs as much as they have in the past few months. They had tons of support before the whole "POW special".

Now they have few allies and lots of rabid libs after them- who were not satisfied when Sinclair fell on their sword.

Lesson for Sinclair is stand for you you believe in and weather the storm.

[68-69TonkinGulfYachtClub]

Hanoi Kerry is behind the attack.

His lackey said Sinclair would pay.

Now they are.

WAKE UP MAIN STREAM RIGHT WING MEDIA

Don't be like the silent majority in the 60's and 70's
and turn your back on America and cave in to the anti war minority.
Speak up for America today!

Kerry was an illegal candidate
and is an illegal US Senator per
US Constitution 14th Amendment Section 3

The groups, however, are stopping short of demanding an advertiser boycott.

So what...they aren't going to watch Sinclair TV channels? Do boycotts usually work when you hit the advertisers, right? Morons.

[weegee]

A coalition of liberal political groups is launching a nationwide protest against Sinclair Broadcast Group, charging that the TV broadcaster, which was also the target of intense criticism during the presidential campaign, is misusing public airwaves with partisan news programming.

Media Schadenfreude and Media Shenanigans PING

BRING IT ON!

The DNC was in collusion with CBS-Viacom to release the forged National Guard memos (remember the request to talk to party chiefs?).

The lamestream media is ready for a bonfire so that the ashes can go in the dustbin of history. Is there a statue of Walter Cronkite that we can tear down someplace?

[bilhosty]

Freep Sinclair's advertisers. Let us send emails supporting Sinclair and it's advertisers to those companies who have email address's. Use the 'rats own web page (see link below) and send them. I just copied and pasted the same message for each one of them. It only takes 10 minutes to contact each one. http://www.sinclairaction.com/contact/point.aspx

A coalition of liberal political groups is launching a nationwide protest against Sinclair Broadcast Group...

What is it about free speech these groups don't understand? It all sounds like sour grapes to me.
