I guess when your stock drops in value after one week of protests, it changes your mind for you.
This was the same type of pressure given towards CBS for the Regan docu-drama, but I'm sure we'll hear from the neocons about how this causes their freedom of speech to suffer.

I did post this in the boycott thread. But yeah, when stocks drop, you know something is wrong.

"They make Fox News look like Edward R. Morrow."
--Al Franken, on Sinclair Broadcasting
Pressure from Media Matters and shareholders forces right-wing Sinclair Broadcasting to cancel its all-station broadcast of anti-Kerry propaganda film Stolen Honor: Wounds That Never Heal. They are now going to try for an hour-long anti-Kerry "newscast" on only some affiliates.
