On October 13th I reported on suspect trading by insiders of the Sinclair Broadcasting Group. As reported by MSNBC today, "Meanwhile, a lawyer said he planned to sue on behalf of shareholders, alleging insider trading by top executives as well as damage from the decision to air the film."
Some Sinclair top executives may have sealed there own fate by brining attention to themselves.

re: THE INTENTION OF THE SINCLAIR GROUP TO AIR "STOLEN HONOR" AS A NEWS-QUOTE "news" EVENT. UNWISE, UNSOUND, UNFORTUNATE. IF,indeed, THIS WERE NEWS, THEN ALL MEDIA, REGARDLESS OF A PERCEIVED BIAS, WOULD BE CLAMORING FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO FIND AIR TIME FOR ITS AIRING. I ALWAYS WONDERED WHY LOCAL CHANNEL 6 (COLUMBUS) EMPLOYED MARK HYMAN TO DO CONSERVATIVE COMMENTARY ON THE NIGHTLY NEWSCAST. I THOUGHT THAT THE ABC CHANNEL WAS GIVING UNUSUAL "parity" TO OTHER VIEWPOINTS. IF YOU HAVE NOT SEEN HIM, HE IS A VERY STIFF AND STILTED SPEAKER AS SURE OF HIMSELF AS WAS ELMER GANTRY. NOW WE FIND OUT THAT HE IS A VICE PRESIDENT OF THE COMPANY. VERY DUPLICITOUS IN THAT HE HAS NEVER BEEN IDENTIFIED ON AIR AS A VICE PRESIDENT. YOU ARE LEFT TO IMAGINE THAT HE IS A SECOND TIER- POOR MAN'S RUSH-WINGNUT. LATELY, HE HAS BEEN ORDERED TO MAKE HIMSELF MORE PRESENTABLE IN HIS DRESS. AT FIRST, HE DRESSED AS THE PROVERBIAL UNDERTAKER. ALSO, I CAN NOW UNDERSTAND WHY COLUMBUS ABC CHANNEL 6 DOES NOT AIR NIGHTLINE UNTIL 12:05 AM, AFTER A RERUN OF SEINFELD. THEY ACTIVELY TRY TO DISCOURAGE THE SLEEPING/SLEEPY PUBLIC FROM SEEING WHAT THEY CONSIDER A LEFTWING PROGRAM, HENCE THEIR OUTRIGHT REFUSAL TO AIR THE PICTURES OF 550 DEAD AMERICANS EVEN WITH NO COMMENTARY SAVE A READING OF THEIR NAMES. SINCE THE AIRING OF "that" PROGRAM, SADLY TO SAY, THE TOTAL OF DEAD HAS MORE THAN DOUBLED.
