Sinclair Broadcasting needs to be contacted and asked the following.

Why are you using the same tactics as the murderer Vladimir Putin by forcing reporters to repeat authoritarian propaganda? American soldiers. during WWII, died fighting to end the very method you are using to lie to people. You are Un-American!

exposure to viewers.

Lots of DUers live in Sinclair markets, and we all know what to do.

I looked, and Sinclair isn't in our area. Yet.

* Local Fox News, Clear Channel Communications; any of these ring a bell?
* Have you ever tried to find an openly progressive editorial writer?

As to your claim that it is "Un-American," I'd encourage you to read Manufacturing Consent.

Also, in regard to the meaning you assign WWII, you might not want to negatively allude to a Country's leader when they lost 30 million to our 400K (Not that he isn't an authoritative jerk).
