A Vice-Pres from Sinclair was on FOX this afternoon before it aired,,,,and admitted that there were more Kerry bumperstickers in Sinclair's parking lot than Bush ones.

How do you balance a cheat and a liar 
that will stop at nothing in order to gain money and power
with an honorable President whose primary focus is protecting
Americans?

It can't be done.

The two are miles apart. Night versus day. Back versus white.

Sinclair Broadcasting Group blew it. They blew it on purpose.

They know that Kerry is unfit to be President. They never asked why Kerry refuses to sign Form 180 which would make public all of his military records. The never said that President Bush signed Form 180. Instead, they quoted a person saying that all of Bush's files have not been found.

Sinclair should have asked why the mainstream media and mainstream journal programs -- 60 Minutes, etc. -- has continuously held President Bush's feet to the fire for the past six months yet have not held Kerry accountable one-tenth as much.

The clearly catered to the mainstream media status quo talking points regarding Rathergate/memogate. Rather than explaining the facts themselves they showed a talking head parroting talking points. The show host said that within 24 hours the blogs had discredited the memos,  The talking head said, paraphrasing, ''the media houses (CBS) doesn't have dozens of people to verify the validity of documents like the blogsphere does."

It's widely known that the experts 60 Minutes used to inspect the documents couldn't verify their validity and were concerned that they may be forged.

I could go on and on. If I get a cop of the show to put on my hard drive I may do complete analysis.

As it stands, Sinclair has used up their one error. They get one second chance. If they repeat their error -- reporting the truth that can be easily manipulated rather than report with honesty that has no gray era -- I'll conclude that they are but another media outlet shooting themselves in the foot and have earned their ticket to go down with the Old Media Titanic.
