Another take on SInclair.
I confess I don't know what the end result of all the anger about Sinclair will be.


I fear however, that should the FCC/FEC decline to intervene that they are going to air the fool thing. WHich virtually no one is going to watch except those who are pro * anyway.

Is it wise to stir this pot...making it all that more controversial and thus increasing the number of viewers.

Why give the enamy free publicity?

1. Well hell yes
If corporations manipulating Presidential elections isn't worth getting in a stir over, what the hell is? I wish we'd add that this explodes the myth of the liberal media, once and for all.

2. i agree the people arent going to be watching
and all this is old stuff that has been debunked. i do think this is good for a handful of reasons. sinclair ahs abused their poer in other ways adn we have allowed. otehr companies, murdoch and cnn are getting away with it too. what i really like is the democrats are yelling loud and we dont normally do that. i dont boycott because i dont like hurting a business ergo employees but told business's this is my kids future and as much as i dont like hurting them, this is a greater cause

it is making a visual how are media is abusing their power with the most obvious company

it is empowering democrats

the momentum and power is with us
