(From the diaries. A great morale boost and proof that our efforts are paying off -- kos)

As directed in this forum I sent emails to an advertiser saying that I enjoyed their products but that I was no longer going to use them, and that none of my friends and family were going to use them either because they advertised on Sinclair stations. I went on to tell them why I had a problem with Sinclair as well.

A few minutes ago I received a call from them telling me they were PULLING their advertising from the Sinclair stations.

1. Glad to see our efforts pay off...

However I wonder if Sinclair family was already aware of this, and they are really making money elsewhere making SBC a front......

4. No, it wasn't me, it was the poster on "Daily Kos" who made the calls...

..."Rakkasan"...sorry if my post was misleading. I copied and pasted the blog entry from "Daily Kos"...Rakkasan deserves the accolades.
