Republican for Kerry emails to Sinclair Advertisers...Columbus OH
Edited on Tue Oct-12-04 09:00 PM by goodboy
This is my good friend:

I have noticed that _________ is a frequent advertiser on ABC 6 WSYX and FOX 28 WTTE. I did not know if you were aware but these stations are part of the Sinclair Broadcast Group which is forcing them to play a politically biased documentary, “Stolen Honor”.
This documentary will be broadcast next week IN PRIMETIME WITH OUT COMMERCIAL INTERRUPTION two weeks before election. This is clearly an unethical practice and against free balanced use of the airways.



I am a Republican but chances are at least half of your customers are Democrats or Republicans like myself that will be upset by this unethical broadcast. Since Sinclair is dependent on revenue from advertisers like you, I will hold the advertisers accountable and avoid doing business with them if the continue to advertise with Sinclair after the “Stolen Honor” planned broadcast.



If you have similar concerns, I would appreciate if you contact your ABC 6 WSYX and FOX 36 WTTE sales representatives to express these concerns relay and suggest they cancel the broadcast.



Sincerely

Republican for Kerry (name omitted to protect him)

3. WTTE
WTTE is 28, not 36. I know its not big, but they might think it is important if you mess the station number up.
