The "newsworthiness" of Sinclair Broadcast Group's Stolen Honor documentary may have to be called into question. A news release from "Swift Boat Veterans for Truth" claims the documentary was originally produced for a group called "POWs for Truth." The POWs and Swifties have since merged into a single, joint political organization.
From the "Swift Boat Veterans for Truth" website: "The POWs [for Truth] also released a new 40 minute documentary titled Stolen Honor: Wounds That Never Heal, produced by Pulitzer Prize and Peabody Award winning journalist Carlton Sherwood.
This would seem to make the documentary a partisan political work rather than "newsworthy" under federal election law. (Swift Boat Veterans for Truth)
