DNC to FEC: Censor the friends o' GOP


iconThe Democrats want to use the McCain-Feingold bill to censor political speech.

Sinclair's decision to order its 62 stations to carry a movie attacking Kerry's Vietnam record is drawing political fire -- not least from the Democratic National Committee, which plans to file a federal complaint today accusing the company of election-law violations. "Sinclair's owners aren't interested in news, they're interested in pro-Bush propaganda," said DNC Chairman Terry McAuliffe, whose complaint will accuse the firm of making an in-kind contribution to the Bush campaign.
Had McAuliffe not made similar complaints about Michael Moore's Fahrenheit 9/11 and Bruce Springsteen's Kerry Aid concerts, he'd really look like a hypocrite.

Mark Hymen, VP of Sinclair Broadcasting and it's public voice, has issued a public invitation to John Kerry to appear during this airing and refute all the claims made. The Kerry camp has been strangely silent.

Hymen? His name is Hymen? How unfortunate.

It's the usual. The Dems blast a tv co for doing what they do to Bush all the time. McAuliffe is a huge hypocrite. Hey, how come the media has stopped investigating Rather's forged documents? When and where did his source make, I mean, get them? What ever happened to the Sandy Berger scandal? How come the swiftboat vets aren't being covered? Any double standard here?
