It may not be a complete victory but perception is important. Great job DUers.
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/6293163/site/newsweek/Oct. 20 - It may have seemed nearly as improbable as the Boston Red Sox taking a playoff series from the New York Yankees. The Democrats, long derided for their reluctance to go for the political jugular, won a round of behind-the-scenes smash-mouth politics. Venting in a language that persuades even the most ideological Republican, they attacked the stock price of the Sinclair Broadcast Group. The result: Sinclair caved in to pressure and decided not to air the anti-John Kerry documentary "Stolen Honor." Instead, the company said it will broadcast excerpts from the film as part of a news program, “A POW Story: Politics, Pressure and the Media,” at 8 p.m. ET on Friday. In a statement, the company claimed that it had never publicly announced plans to run “Stolen Honor” in its entirety.
The Kerry campaign claimed it had nothing to do with the coordinated assault by Democratic operatives on Sinclair. They don't need to, they said. "People don't have to be whipped up about this," said Kerry spokesman Chad Clanton. "You don't expect your local TV station to be pushing a political agenda two weeks before an election. It's un-American."
