America's largest broadcast group to air anti-Kerry primetime smear

Your airwaves at work: Sinclair Broadcast Group, which owns the largest chain of television stations in the USA, plans to broadcast a documentary accusing John Kerry of having betrayed American POWs in Vietnam.

According to WashingtonPost.com, Hunt Valley, Md.-based Sinclair has ordered its 62 stations, some of which are in the swing states of Ohio, Florida, Iowa and Wisconsin, to show "Stolen Honor: Wounds That Never Heal" during prime-time hours next week. The Sinclair station group extends to 24 percent of U.S. television households.
