We need a list of advertisers willing to support Sinclair. I'll go out of my way to try to buy whatever they're selling.

1. dont worry....

freepers don't have much money and what they do have is spent on cigarrettes and coors light.

4. Food Stamps aren't good for those items. nt

2. We got 'em outnumbered

and we're smarter than they are.

[txindy]

3. Tell them to have at it!

There are car dealerships, furniture stores, and the like advertising on Sinclair. Let the freepers buy everything those folks sell.

7. hahah, stupid freepers

I honestly feel a pang of pity for those poor idiot freepers. Buy whatever the advertisers sell? God, they're dumb. If they want to support Sinclair they'd go buy some stock.

Boycotts work. Anti-boycotts...has that EVER worked?

12. I don't know... perhaps Sylvan Learning Systems could help them..

.. those freepers aren't great in the learning department. Perhaps they need some tutoring on how a democracy works.

22. Uh, that'd be REALLY stupid

You check out their stock price?

http://finance.yahoo.com/q/bc?s=SBGI

Down 50% over the year.

Their stock is a dog fleas won't even go near.

5. Sign up and tell them Heinz Ketchup advertises there.

And Air France.

6. They want to buy? Give them this list....

Planned Parenthood
The ACLU
FUBU

Working Assets
Mother Jones
The Advocate

10. That's great!!

:evilgrin:

[high density]

8. Willing to support Sinclair?

Well, they should wait a little bit longer, because I have a feeling the ad rates will be cut significantly once Sinclair pisses off half of the country.

9. Don't worry. These are the same people who want to drown

government in the bathtub in order to keep taxes down. In other words, they're cheap skates.

[Warren DeMontague]

11. I wouldn't worry. I didn't see inflatable love dolls or donuts

on those lists.

13. Doesn't it just warm your heart

to see caring citizens thwart democracy, support corpo-fascism, support a backdoor gutting of the First Amendment, and attempt to steal an election through circumstantial lies and propaganda?

God Bless the USA.

14. Freepers don't get it.

I just want to say to something to the lurking Freepers.

Advertisers don't want to get into this mess. Do you honestly think that if you and your buddies promise to buy a certain product, that the advertisers will risk having their good names mention in this mess? Do you honestly think that calling and harassing people because they pulled their ads will suddenly change their minds?

Freepers, your losing this one. The only thing your doing by harassing advertisers is pissing people off. They are going to take that anger out on your friends Sinclair. Those advertisers will never do business with Sinclair again, because they will blame SINCLAIR for getting them into this mess in the first place. They will blame Sinclair for the harassing phone calls. On top of that you idiots are running the risk of being charged with harassment. I do want to thank you though. I want to thank you for helping us with this boycott, because your ignorance will make certain that the boycott of Sinclair will become permanent.

Watch and learn how a TRUE DEMOCRACY WORKS!

16. Hi tamtam!!

Welcome to DU!! :toast:

[yardwork]

18. Freepers don't get something else

If they support Sinclair in this illegal influence on an election, it might be their candidate that gets "Sinclaired" next time.

Suppose Kerry wins and suddenly the airwaves are dominated by liberals (I know, but just pretend....) who run nasty lying "documentaries" about freeper-preferred candidates?

Freepers and other Sinclair-supporters ought to stop and think what they are asking for with this.

[ibegurpard]

23. exactly

hence my post below

[Spirochete]

17. The Loan Arranger?

They need to go through the proper channels. They have to talk to Tonto first.

[omnithrope]

19. slimy.

almost a bribe...

[ibegurpard]

20. freepers would pull the rope on their own noose

if the GOP asked them to. Stupid fuckers.

[requiem99]

21. Bring it on. Not buying is far, far easier than buying.
