Sinclair boycott call falling on deaf ears
Democrats don't want documentary to air 10/20/04

A call by some Democrats to boycott companies that advertise on television stations owned by Sinclair Broadcasting Group of Hunt Valley appears to have had little effect in Baltimore County.
Democrats want to block the planned airing on 60 stations around the country later this week of an anti- John Kerry documentary called "Stolen Honor: Wounds That Never Heal."
Sinclair did not return calls Oct. 15 about whether the documentary will run on one or both of Sinclair's local stations, which include WBFF (Fox 45) and WNUV (WB 54) in Baltimore.
The Boycott Sinclair Web site, which is linked to the Democratic National Committee Web site, encourages visitors to call Sinclair stations, boycott the advertisers and sign a petition to protest the show.
"It's a free, hourlong attack ad to be broadcast to 25 percent of American households," said Ryan O'Doherty, director of communications and research for the Maryland Democratic party.
