My email from Pepsi in re Sinclair
Pepsico was on the list of Sinclair advertisers so I emailed them. I told them that while I love Pepsi, I would make the sacrifice and boycott it. They emailed me back.
"Hello!
Thank you for taking the time to contact us at PepsiCo. Accurate and balanced journalism is important to us and we appreciate your thoughts regarding Sinclair Broadcasting Group's upcoming plans.
We have no national advertising buys scheduled with Sinclair Broadcasting, nor do we plan to advertise on the program in question. We will also make our local bottlers aware of this situation as they plan their local marketing efforts. We will follow the resolution of this issue closely."
They also suggested that I write Smith and Sinclair etc. Sounds like another one for the good guys. At least PepsiCo is aware and looking into it.

6. Someone else posted a thread about this too
Sounds like PepsiCo is sending out form emails. Don't really like that. But I guess they are getting some heat if they are replying to emails.
