So now some Demorat Senators want a probe of the Sinclair Group broadcasting an anti Kerry piece on what is a privately owned group of stations. Where were they when Dan Rather and cBS were broadcasting a slander piece on the President of the United States of America using fraudulent documents, then, despite all evidence regarding its being fake, stonewalled?
Sinclair has ordered its 62 stations to air “Stolen Honor: Wounds That Never Heal” without commercials in prime time next week, just two weeks before the Nov. 2 election. Twelve of those stations are in key battleground states of Ohio, Florida, Iowa and Wisconsin.
A total of 20 Democratic senators led by California Sen. Dianne Feinstein wrote a letter to the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), calling for an investigation into whether Sinclair’s plan to air the film is an improper use of public airwaves, said Adam Vogt, a spokesman from the senator’s office.
The 20: CNN has confirmed that the following 17 senators signed the letter: Dianne Feinstein (D-CA), Patrick Leahy (D-VT), Edward Kennedy (D-MA), Byron Dorgan (D-ND), Jack Reed (D-RI), Bill Nelson (D-NE), Debbie Stabenow (D-MI), Carl Levin (D-MI), Ron Wyden (D-OR), Bob Graham (D-FL), Dick Durbin (D-IL), Tim Johnson (D-SD), Harry Reid (D-NV), Daniel Inouye (D-HI) and Blanche Lincoln (D-AR), Ernest Hollings (D-SC) and Patty Murray (D-WA).
Amazing, no Hillary. Apparently she realizes that it is just politics.
Mark Hyman, vice president for corporate relations at Sinclair, told CNN that broadcasting the film is not a violation of campaign finance law.
“Our goal here is to get John Kerry to sit down and talk with these guys. Get a chance to tell them why he branded them as war criminals, why he accused them of committing war-time atrocities,” Hyman said.
“Is it (illegal) because there are some elements of this that may reflect poorly on John Kerry?” Hyman asked.
I do not think that I need to reiterate all that the Left has done to smear W, Cheny, Rice, Ashcroft, Rumsfeldt, and even Powell. Y’all already know about it, and know how hypocritical it is for the Left to attack this program. The MSM won’t broadcast anything about the true John Kerry. Now they are going to get a full slap across the face with a steel guantlet.
