Yahoo! News - Dems Oppose Plan to Air Anti-Kerry Film


Yahoo! News - Dems Oppose Plan to Air Anti-Kerry Film


So how does airing this blatantly partisan piece (visit this link for more about the film's FCC implications and the "journalist" who produced the film) not violate the equal time rule?
"Would [Democrats] suggest that our reporting a car bomb in Iraq is an in-kind contribution to the Kerry campaign? Would they suggest that our reporting on job losses is an in-kind contribution to the Kerry campaign?" he said. "It's the news. It is what it is. We're reporting the news."

Oh. Right.

Too see if your local affiliate may be showing this piece, visit the Sinclair Broadcasting home page, and politely inform them that they should worry about their FCC license.
