Ohio Talking Points

Remember when we protested WSYX-6 here in Columbus last April because they refused to air the special Nightline honoring America's fallen? Well, they're at it again.

No doubt you've heard that Sinclair Broadcast Group, owners of WSYX, is mandating that its stations pre-empt regular programming and air a Kerry-bashing "documentary" between Oct. 21 and 24. There is a national campaign underway to complain, protest, and boycott Sinclair. The key websites to bookmark are:

We'll probably be doing something locally when this partisan propaganda airs, but in the meantime, here's the contact info for WSYX, Sinclair, and some of the companies advertising on WSYX.* Please give 'em a call and an email and make your opinion known.
