Sinclair Again in the News

Sinclair Broadcasting is directing its 62 stations -- which reach a quarter of the American public -- to air Stolen Honor: Wounds That Never Heal, a documentary that attacks Senator John Kerry for his activism after returning from Vietnam. Sinclair owns the largest chain of TV stations in the country; it made the controversial move to block an ABC broadcast of Nightline earlier this year. Top executives of the company are public supporters of President Bush. See USA Today (11 Oct); Washington Post (11 Oct); World Net Daily (11 Oct)
