The Media Drop

The Baltimore Sun’s Nick Madigan writes about the countersuit filed against Sinclair Broadcasting by a former employee, Jonathan Leiberman, who took offense to the much-ballyhooed documentary about Senator John Kerry that the television station ownership company was running across its network before the 2004 Presidential Election. Leiberman was tossed after he refused to take part in the program - which many outsiders saw as a direct attack at Kerry and not a “news” story - and then told the Sun about what was happening inside Sinclair.
