2. This is why it's important to keep on top of this stuff
and watch out for those PSAs that tell you when a Sinclair station is coming up for license renewal.

The procedure is to get petitions signed to withdraw the license and to bring them to the FCC. They are using the public's airwaves, and the public can and should decide how those airwaves are to be used.

A racist, partisan GOP hack like Smith should never be in control of any portion of the news media. He is incapable of fairness or balance, and he needs to be thrown off OUR airwaves.
