Thank you for that list.
My cable company does carry one of the sinclair stations..........I'll be awaiting further info on whether it will be carrying this documentary.
A couple of weeks ago we were in an area video rental place and there was a poster advertising f911 and I made a comment to my husband about it not being something we would be renting. The owner over heard me and commented - "I really didn't want to carry it."
The ensuing conversation was interesting. He originally wasn't going to carry it and had told many people who inquired that he wouldn't. He said he got a lot of grief from a lot of people about his "censorship" and a bunch of people cancelled their memberships. But that was not what caused him to change his mind about carrying it. he explained he changed his mind based on the comment of one long-time customer, who is also a friend and die-hard Bush supporter. This person said "there are a lot of us that know the thing is hogwash, but we need to know what we are talking about when refuting the lies from this thing."
Long story short - he ordered the minimum number of copies he could and has a waiting list for it that stretches until after election day - but the only names on the list are people he knows are actually Bush supporters - in other words he is not making the film available to the kool-aid drinkers!!!!!
Please see my post #42 about how one independent video rental store is dealing with this issue.
Not voting for Bush is not an option in this household..........
I wonder how many other independent storeowners are doing what this guy is doing?
"The monopoly for Old Media is so over."
Like, Old Media, that's so twentieth-century, dude.
Isn't David Brock the fraudulant self-proclaimed conservative turncoat who wrote about the Clintons back in early to mid-1990s?
Yes, the very same. The one who said he lied before but he's not lying now. Yeah. Sure.

15. and it doesn't matter if you do or don't own their Stock
Contact them & tell them you are going to dump their stock.
It takes time & $ for them to determine if you are an actual stock holder.
Go get them. If they aren't Anti American I don't know what is.
