2. NEEDS HELP!!! It's close! Go vote!

Sinclair Broadcast Group is asking its 62 TV stations to pre-empt regular programming two weeks before the presidential election to show a film criticizing Sen. John Kerry's anti-war activities after Vietnam. Do you think it is a campaign contribution or a legitimate news event?
Choice Votes Percentage of 5440 Votes

11. You are not asking for the pre-emption, Sinclair, you are DEMANDING it

And the movie is, an opinion-editorial piece at best, because it is not rooted in fact. Your attempt to pass it off as a news event is a news event!
