Ask Sinclair for Equal Time
Yesterday, media awareness groups launch a campaign to protest Sinclair Broadcast Group's continued misuse of public airwaves.
The campaign aims to spur action against Sinclair Broadcast Group's use of the 62 television stations it owns or operates to systematically promote partisan political interests. Of particular concern is a nightly "news and commentary" segment titled "The Point," in which Sinclair vice president Mark Hyman consistently espouses one-sided, conservative rhetoric without any counterpoint.
The vehicle for this initiative is a new website, www.SinclairAction.com, where you will be able to discuss this topic with others and register your concerns directly with corporations that advertise on Sinclair's stations. We are hopeful that advertisers will join our effort in encouraging Sinclair to give equal airtime to opposing views in a "counterpoint."
