You remember Sinclair, makes Clear Channel look like it's a progressive haven. They wanted to run Swift Boat smears about John Kerry 2 weeks before the election

17 Sinclair Stations Join Fox Mini-Network
Thursday March 2 5:35 PM ET


Seventeen TV stations owned by Sinclair Broadcast Group Inc. will carry programming from a new mini-network being launched by News Corp.'s Fox television unit this fall, the companies announced Thursday.

Adding to the 10 Fox-owned stations already lined up to carry the shows from MyNetworkTV, the new mini-network will now be available in 36 percent of American homes when it launches Sept. 5.

News Corp. came up with the plan after 10 of its stations were left without prime-time programming following the announcement from CBS Corp. that it would shut down its money-losing UPN network.
