Sinclair first REPORTS lies about 1 war—now COVERS UP the truth of another
http://money.cnn.com/2004/11/11/news/fortune500/savingpvt_ryan/index.htm?cnn=yes

Read down to the third graf from the article's end:

"WSOC-TV said it made its decision to withdraw "Saving Private Ryan" amid the war in Iraq and concerns about FCC penalties.

In addition, Sinclair Broadcasting Corp.'s six ABC affiliates will not air the program, according to a spokeswoman for affiliate WGGB-TV in Springfield, Mass. Sinclair affiliates in North Carolina, West Virginia, Ohio, Alabama and Massachusetts were also affected."

We lose 18 troops in the fallacious siege of Fallujah and miraculously, this edict comes down. More feel-good news from Mark Hyman and his crew of flat-earth, witch-burning, leech users.

1. I thought we shut down Sinclair when they tried to run an anti-Kerry movie
Did they not get the message? It's like they are ignoring us now.
