Sinclair Retreats on Kerry Film
Sounds to me like a partial retreat (not unlike being "kinda pregnant"):
"Facing advertiser defections, a viewer boycott and a plummeting stock price, as well as strong opposition from Democrats, Sinclair Broadcast Group Inc. scrapped its plan to air a film that attacks the 1970s-era antiwar activities of Sen. John F. Kerry (news, bio, voting record), and will instead run a special produced by its news division incorporating parts of the movie."

They're re-packaging the same assassination attempt and hoping to do a better job of getting away with it this time. I think it's time to write a new round of objections to all the advertisers and let them know this doesn't give them any protective cover than the last one did.
This mobilization against Sinclair has been *singularly* effective. Now is NOT the time to stop! This is how we will let them know that they're OUR airwaves, this is OUR government and OUR time to reclaim them!!!
Write everyone you wrote before and tell them you're not fooled and the American public will NOT accept UN-American behavior.
