You are right to assume that liberals aren't pussies. You can only kick a dog so long before it bites you. Put your sell orders in today, because the bottom will drop out tomorrow. There's a shit storm coming and you don't want to be caught in it.

Huge Spike in Volume - Smith's Selling?by: fredmertz99 (30/M) 10/18/04 03:10 pmMsg: 5368 of 5368
There was a huge spike in volume in the last 20 minutes. Do you think the Smith Brothers have decided to get some of their cash out?

MoveOn.org issues Sell Signalby: _the_dude (32/M/Fraser, CO) Long-Term Sentiment: Strong Sell 10/18/04 03:06 pmMsg: 5351 of 5370
Just got an e-mail from moveOn.org - they are informing the masses (2 million+ members) to contact mutual fund companies they own shares of and ask that they sell Sinclair if owned.Can you say "buh-bye"? Enron part deux.

1. I just got that email from Moveon... urging everyone to get

in contact with their brokers about sinclair shares. Here's a portion of the email:

Starting Wednesday, Sinclair Broadcasting (SBGI) will begin airing a one-hour anti-Kerry hit piece -- in prime time, without advertising -- on its 62 stations. Do you own Sinclair stock or a mutual fund that may include a Sinclair holding? We strongly suggest you call your broker or money manager to discuss whether you hold Sinclair and let them know what you think about a company that puts partisan politics above its investors' interests.

On Friday, Lehman Brothers downgraded its expectation for Sinclair stock. With the headline "Management Chooses Politics over Shareholders", the report says:

In our opinion, Sinclair's decision to pre-empt programming to air Stolen Honor is potentially damaging -- both financially and politically. In a best case scenario, we believe that this decision could result in lost ad revenues. In a worst case scenario, we believe the decision may lead to higher political risk.<1>
When a company puts politics over business, it loses stock value quickly. Since its plans were announced, Sinclair's share price has dropped by 11%. That means shareholders have lost $70,000,000 in just over a week.<2> Call your fund manager or broker now to ask if you own any Sinclair stock.

6. We should contact Sinclairs investors

If this is a publicly traded company, they might not be happy with how it's being managed.

And will add a 'good riddance' while I'm at it.

9. Sinclair Warns of Email Spoof

this is on the link you provided:

BALTIMORE, Oct. 15 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Sinclair Broadcast Group is notifying the public of an email spoof that attempts to make the recipient believe that they are receiving an email from Sinclair's CEO David Smith. The email is entitled, "Update on Kerry POW Film and FEC Ruling." Recipients should ignore and delete any such correspondence. Sinclair would also urge that any purported communication coming from a Sinclair executive or employee be confirmed as authentic.

Sinclair is in the process of tracking the sender of the email spoof and will determine whether to proceed with civil charges. Anyone found to be creating, forwarding, or posting such false emails may also face civil action.

11. They're getting cues from Rove.... "Spoof"

:wtf: With no explanation other than the title. I suspect that they are trying to stop the bleeding after people sent letters to shareholders. LOL

5. Hah! That's right. We're mad as hell!

"Get out of this stock, fastby: PUCKOV (M/Gitmo) Long-Term Sentiment: Strong Sell 10/10/04 05:53 pmMsg: 1240 of 5343

What? MORE Republican corporate crime? Another republican company screws over unsuspecting shareholders/pension funds?

7. The lawsuit didn't help it much....

where somebody is FINALLY suing the Swift Boat Liars for libel

Which I had hoped would happen back in August, but heck, this is as good a time as any now.

[evilqueen]

8. Yeah, I just heard this on the radio.

Good timing.

[Shopaholic]

10. Couldn't happen to a nicer bunch of folks--

I guess that this free advertising for * didn't turn out to be quite as "free' as they thought it was going to be now did it?

[cheshire]

14. To bad the TV media hasn't the cajones to show it.

13. This sword cuts two ways....

Excuse the pessimism, but those greedy repugs could be lying in wait for us the drive the stock price down then snatch it up at a bargain price effectively elevating it back to previous values AND making themselves a nice profit in the process.

Just a thought ... please dont shoot the messenger.
