Take Action on Sinclair

Forwarded to me:

Attached please find a link to a site that lists all the advertisers for Sinclair Broadcasting-- the huge media congolomerate [sic] that is going after John Kerry's Vietnam record in a 45 minute commercial to be aired in a huge market (one aimed primarily at swing states). Protests have made a considerable difference-- advertisers have begun to defect from Sinclair, Sinclair's stock has declined to a 52-week low, and Sinclair is now TALKING about changing the format to keep it more balanced.

But it will help keep the pressure on if you:

-- Email or call the advertisers on this list.

You can email them all by using the link at the top right of the list; a few calls to key advertisers will
be even better. The webiste also has a Top 10 advertiser target list at http://www.boycottsbg.com/advertisers/TopTenAdvertisers.aspx

Do it.

Whatever happens with the election, SBGI is getting hammered, both in the marketplace of ideas and in the marketplace. They have become the poster child for the reasons media conglomeration is dangerous and their stockholders, board members, advertisers and employees are turning on them. You have to love the power of the market.
