So Liberals are in a panic that the right wing mainstream media not only consists of FOX News but Sinclair Broadcasting as well with a network of local stations. Of course the left has CBS, NBC, ABC, CNN, MSNBC and many other outlets representing thousands of stations shown in all markets pushing Democratic talking points. Sinclair merely has 233 local stations in mainly rural markets mainly with CW affiliates, and has no presence in major markets such as New York City. Yet Liberals are in a panic over the past few weeks declaring Sinclair to be the evil empire -- even blaming Hillary's loss on the network.
When someone switches to those channels, they know what they are getting, that's not the case when you insert blatant propaganda in middle of newscasts which has not related to news and FORCE networks to run them.
Who’s Afraid of Sinclair Broadcast Group? John Oliver The Right is gaining more platforms to deliver its take on the news, and this trend is posing a danger to the historically unbiased, nonpartisan, straight-down-the-middle reporting of the major media. Who says so? Why, John Oliver. His fans are right: He has a gift for irony. Oliver was so exercised Sunday night that he delivered a flustered 19-minute tirade on the Sinclair Broadcast Group, which is in the process, pending regulatory approval, of acquiring 42 local TV stations from Tribune Co. Oliver calculates that Sinclair will, after the merger, command the broadcasting power of 215 local stations whose most-watched evening newscasts, he says, reach a combined 2.2 million people. “And that is a lot!” Oliver says, although it actually isn’t, unless you think six-tenths of 1 percent of the country is a lot of the country. Sinclair is, moreover, hardly the only media outfit competing for attention from those 2.2 million people, but cue hysteria about corporate mind control. (More at above url in title)
