Even the NYT noted the horrors of this nonstory: David D. Smith, the chairman of Sinclair Broadcast Group, says the media is getting his company all wrong.
His remark, in a lengthy email exchange with The New York Times, came in response to renewed scrutiny of Sinclair after a video spread rapidly showing anchors at dozens of its stations across the country reciting the same speech about media bias.
Mr. Smith defended the anchors’ segments, known as “must-runs,” and likened them to the late-night shows that networks air on their local affiliates.
“Not that you would print it, but do you understand that every local TV station is required to ‘must run’ from its network their content, and they don’t own me,” he wrote on Tuesday. “That would be all their news programming and other shows such as late-night talk, which is just late-night political so-called comedy.” https://www.nytimes.com/2018/04/04/business/media/sinclairs-boss-responds-to-criticism-you-cant-be-serious.html

See LIONEL in concert. On May 19, 2018 CE, Lionel of the United States (LOTUS) will grace the portals and storm the stage of New York’s fabled Cutting Room in his ASSUME THE LOTUS POSITION TOUR, an evening of (out)spoken word and the immaculate twang of Mother Bluegrass with his Lock ‘n Load trio. Lionel will astound his truth warrior audience with tales from the Conspiratorium, his dissection of fake news media charlatans and a look at the world through a prism that defies description and redefines comedy, satire and critical thinking. Lionel joins guitar flatpicking genius Bob Harris and banjo master Bob Sutor for a musical journey through the quintessential American musical art form that will bring our beloved republic together. You never knew the truth could be this fun. For tickets click: https://www.ticketfly.com/purchase/event/1671512?_ga=2.100396702.1827099017.1522063024-993213209.1521656048
