The Sinclair thing with the anchors all doing the same story is a practice I've seen going back at least a decade. I've just never seen it used to mobilize a political message. Usually just centralized content production by mother company.

honest question...but hasnt this been a Conan Obrien skit for a while now?

Yes. When I worked at CBS local years ago same thing--they fed us stories and intros daily, it's considered an affiliate service. We needed the news to fill air time because we had a small staff so we used the stories.

Hasn't fake news on social media been a story that's been covered to death? Why was it never called "pushing Trump's narrative" until now? And why are these people trying to make national filler content look sinister? Any problem with Sinclair is overshadowed by the dishonesty.

I’ve worked in two different local markets and know people who’ve worked in dozens of markets across the country. THIS IS NOT NORMAL.
