@realDonaldTrump
So funny to watch Fake News Networks, among the most dishonest groups of people I have ever dealt with, criticize Sinclair Broadcasting for being biased. Sinclair is far superior to CNN and even more Fake NBC, which is a total joke.

I wanted to post an image of the US map where they have stations, but not sure how. They have thorough saturation of the country. Here's a link from their website:

"Sinclair owns and operates, programs or provides sales services to stations in the following markets."

I remember reading about conservative publishers in the 90's buying small town, local newspapers all over the county. Same with radio stations. They have a plan they've been implementing for a long time now. This is sinister manipulation.

And my FB page is not a political one. So that's good. I'll share it today.

I hope this becomes at least a point of conversation in the political sphere. This kind of thing needs to stop!
