Edited on Mon Oct-18-04 03:26 PM by Ilsa
enter one month and hit refresh. It looks like they've lost about 20% of their value.

3. Look at the YTD
You will see a cliff in valuation that corresponds to when they refused to broadcast the Nightline reading of the names of the dead.

Wouldn't that be ironic????? Sinclair Broadcasting Group, Inc becomes Al Gore TV.

Long-Term Sentiment: Strong Sell 10/18/04 04:23 pm
Msg: 5574 of 5586

I am a Bush supporter and personally think that Kerry's record in Vietnam is questionable but I think Sinclair made a mistake. There are a lot of angry flag-burning liberals out there who would like nothing more than to take down a company like Sinclair because they are still angry they lost the 2000 election and will probably lose this one too. They won't rest until they get what they want.

So if you want to save whatever you have left, sell this stock.

<snip>

And there's a lot more where that came from!

Down almost 10% anyone...looks like a bunch of funds did a dumperino!

LOL!

I'm so tired of this "liberal flag-burner" insult - that's so last century!

Glad to hear our pressure's working & being noticed!
