NEW YORK (CNN/Money) - Sinclair Broadcast Group, owner of the largest chain of television stations in the nation, plans to air a documentary that accuses Sen. John Kerry of betraying American prisoners during the Vietnam War, a newspaper reported Monday.

The network has ordered all 62 of its stations to air "Stolen Honor: Wounds That Never Heal" without commercials in prime-time next week, the Washington Post said, just two weeks before the Nov. 2 election.

The anti-Kerry film states that the senator's testimony hurt the American war effort and undercut morale among the troops.

I think it will be broadcast here in the OKC market since SBG own 2 local channel's (Fox 25 & WB 34), And I can already hear the "Lynch Kerry" remarks starting, Cause knowing how "Hardcore" pro-military this state is, some numbnuts will use this as the "Holy Bible" of facts (More like Holy Pile of S**t!)...Too bad I want to watch this (NOT!) as much as I want to see "Fare-and-slight 9/11-aka Micheal Moore needs to buy more 'Krispy Kremes' so buy/rent the f**kin' thing"

Too bad, Cause after the MLB playoffs & the 2004 World Series I wont be watching FUX (rhymes with SUX) again until next year (When the 2005 Nextel NASCAR season starts) cause that network sucks major ass! Just don't get me started on the WB *aka The 'WE BLOW' network)...Guess I will missing their broadcast of this pile of manure!

Oh, Btw, Why the hell is everyone so interested in what the hell happened years ago?

Also, Michael Powell is the head of the FCC.

The airwaves of our country are supposed to be used first and foremost for the public good. There used to be and equal time clause but it was done away with.
F 9/11 is an apples to oranges comparison becuase it was shown in a movie theater and if you wanted to see it, you drove to the movie theater, bought your ticket and saw it.
It wasn't being broadcast over the public airwaves into your home. This is blatant PROPAGANDA. Got it?

I was thinking about it last night and thought that what Sinclair is doing might violate the Snowe-Jeffords Amendment in McCain-Feingold. Sinclair is a corporation, so it would easily qualify.

I don't know. With Michael Powell running the FCC and the Dems not having the majority in the House and Senate, I don't know how far this will go. It's causing quite a stir and taking the attention (again) off of Iraq and the fact that oil is $54 a bbl today. WAKE UP PEOPLE!
F*cking fascists.

It's like the saying goes "If you are not outraged, you are not paying attention!" What is it with this country that they are more concerned about voting for the next American Idol than voting for the next American president? How can people still be undecided about this election? There has never been a greater divide between the two candidates--the choice is so clear to those of us who have been paying attention. The bodies are piling up in Iraq. The rest of the world holds this president and his cabinet of war criminals in contempt. The economy is in the toilet--this will be the first president since Hoover to have a net loss of jobs while in office. Our constitutional rights are being stripped away from us one by one by one. Our media moves ever closer to becoming state-controlled, thanks to the stranglehold that media giants have on the news in this country. Oil is at a all-time high--does anyone not see this and understand that this joke of a president is responsible????? People--wake up before it's too late!
