Yet again, big difference. Sinclair Broadcasting is not a 527 group, is it? And the 527 groups must stop running the ads for a period of time before the election, according to the FEC.
When the FEC looks at the ties between Sinclair and the Bush campaign ($68,000 in donations), you don't think that they are going to see this broadcast as an in-kind contribution? Of course they will and the broadcast will be brought to a screeching hault.
