        FCC Head Ajit Pai is a Trump tool. Sinclair purchase of Tribune is designed to create massive propaganda platform - the foundation of every totalitarian regime.

        Wake up people. This is not cool. If passed we are on the path to complete state run media controlling everything we are exposed too. All media will be slanted.

        They took over WRGB in Schenectady, one of the oldest stations in the US. The "Beyond the Headlines" pieces are appalling.

        Sinclair TV is paired w/ their right wing hate radio of Hannity, Rush and Michael Savage. Who has Michael Savage on the air in 2017?
