What will be our answer to the Sinclair broadcast?
Who will stand up for us?
No one? (as usual)
Where are Michael Moore and George Sorros when we really need them?

3. If anti-sinclair stations could just show the other side...
say F911 or maybe something made for TV....

4. Damned either way...
If it appears that dems are trying to "hide" the ad by aggresive means, it makes it look like it has merit. If it is ignored on the other hand, it also could be taken as factual news. The best course may be to attack as an exmple of right wing bias in the press (Sinclair) which also allows for discussions on Fox, etc.

This could also be a trap as was noted here elsewhere - a way to kill any upcoming plans to air Moore's film through this premptive strike.

7. try emailing Senator McCain
I just did-he spoke out when Sinclair refused to air the Nightline with Koppel reading the names of war dead, maybe he'll speak out again. http://mccain.senate.gov/index.cfm?fuseaction=Contact.Home

Also, go to www.stopsinclair.org and sign the petition

8. Let's call for a boycott and for a dropping of their channels from
cable services.
