[senseandsensibility]

Really alarming and needs to be spread far and wide. This is ridiculous. They are fauxifying the local news with help from the WSJ!

7. KOMO here in Seattle was part of the deception.

I think it was Alex Wagner but KOMO, the Sinclair affiliate here did a “special” called “Seattle is Dying.” It was utterly full of lies about the city and stressed the violence and homelessness as an epidemic rather than as diminishing, which it is. That station also has right-leaning polls which drive me mad.

I suppose anchors need jobs, and theirs did register dismay when Sinclair bought the station, but I don’t see how they work there.

8. Yes, San Francisco is in the crosshairs of these rightwing operatives

as well. Not that it doesn't have problems, but they are GREATLY exaggerated.

10. Reinstating the Fairness Doctrine can stop Sinclar in its tracks (proposed solution)

Sinclair stations won't be able to lie, propagandize, or spin their right-wing nonsense to the local public because they'll no longer be allowed to take advantage of the public's trust in local news media. That's why we need to bring it back--to stop over-the-air propaganda peddled to unsuspecting citizens.
