TV stations told to pull plug on anti-Kerry film

[WannaJumpMyScooter]

A media company that had planned to broadcast much of a film that attacks Sen. John Kerry on its 62 TV stations significantly changed its plans Tuesday amid protests from some of its shareholders and Kerry's supporters.
The company — Sinclair Broadcast Group of Hunt Valley, Md. — didn't immediately satisfy its most vocal critics. But the change seems to make it less likely that the program will be mostly devoted to the anti-Kerry film.

6. Don't be fooled

same shit, different packaging. Don't let up on them OR their advertisers. Hit 'em again and hit them HARD!

10. Exactly. They've just repackaged it...

... and will likely include the most aggregious lies in their poorly disguised hit piece. For, if they didn't still have a bias, why would the piece still be primarily titled "A POW Story"?

If the piece is now supposed to be about 527s, political advertising and the media, where the hell does any POWs story come in -- unless they're maintaining focus on the anti-Kerry 'Stolen Honor' theme?

11. Anti looney liberals instead

You got that right, same shit, different packaging. I'll bop on over to the GE2004 thread and see what's cooking on their new angle.
