Kaoud Oriental Rugs (local MA. sponsor) cancels WGGB ad (SINCLAIR)
I'm so excited!!!! I wote e-mails to a local sponsor of WGGB here in Western MA complaining about Sinclair and they actually cancelled their advertising!!!!.
Here is the e-mail from them I just got!!!
>In response to your email regarding Sinclair Broadcasting: >We at Kaoud Oriental Rugs feel that we should not support any company's >political agenda and have decided to remove our advertising from ABC >affiliate WGGB in Springfield until further notice.
The freeps have been harrassing the advertisers who are making these decisions, and probably ALREADY they are calling and harrassing the nice folks at the rug store.
as to the effects this is having on the local stations. I hate to say it but this will affect some working stiffs as well, but Sinclair overall made a serious mistake and they will pay
Tehy hae become the poster boy (not in a good way) of deregulation and even the NYT story pointed to this last night.
