FCC Will Not Block Airing of Anti-Kerry Documentary



Well, I can't say that I'm surprised, but Michael Powell will not take any action to block the Sinclair Broadcasting Group's airing of Stolen Honor: Wounds That Never Heal, a obviously-right-wing-piece-of-propaganda-posing-as-a-documentary covering Kerry's antiwar activities. Defending the FCC's non-action, Powell said this:
"Don't look to us to block the airing of a program. I don't know of any precedent in which the commission could do that."
The documentary is due to air two weeks before the presidential election.



The FCC is also turning a blind eye to fake right-wing-propaganda-posing-as-newscasts currently airing on Sinclair affiliates. Go here for more on that subject.
