The Tampa affiliate of Sinclair is NOT showing "Stolen Honor" tonight
as scheduled... instead it's a "special episode" of "Charmed"... I thought this deserved a thread of its own... Wonder what happened? It still shows up as "Stolen Honor" on the satellite guide. Anyone else in an area where Sinclair owns a station? Are they showing "Stolen Honor?"

3. They renamed it and told all their affiliates to show Friday @ 7pm Central
I am guessing satellite guide wasn't updated.

New name. . ."A POW Story: Politics, Pressure and the Media." Won't be showing all of Stolen Honor, just the "good parts."

<snip>

Sinclair, which owns or controls stations that reach nearly a quarter of all American homes with televisions, also scaled back the number of outlets that would air the revised program, called "A POW Story: Politics, Pressure and the Media." It will air Friday on 40 of Sinclair's 62 stations, including three each in the crucial swing states of Ohio and Florida.



According to a Sinclair news release issued late Tuesday, the program would look at the use of documentaries to influence voting in the 2004 campaign, as well as at media bias and the content of "certain of these documentaries." "Stolen Honor" was the only film cited in the news release.

6. Look on the bright side - Who will watch this nonsense on a Friday nite
during dinner time?

Only true believers. . . .

4. Somehow that special episode of "Charmed" sounds worse.
