Staples Pulls Ads From Sinclair Broadcast Group
Even though Sinclair Broadcast Group canceled its plan to air the documentary "Stolen Honor," not-so-tolerant "liberals" have pressured Staples Inc. to yank its ads from the stations' news programs.
The office-supplies chain said "the decision was fueled in part by e-mails from customers angry at what they consider to be the broadcaster's right-wing bias in news and commentary," the Washington Post reported today.

Indeed? So does that mean if enough people complain to Staples about the left-wing bias in news and commentary at CBS, ABC, the New York Times, the Washington Post (etc., etc., etc.) that it will pull ads from them?
Perhaps if enough people contact Staples it will end its snub of Sinclair.
Note: Other Sinclair advertisers that John Kerry's fans have targeted, according to the Post: Kraft Foods Inc., Target Corp., Geico Corp., McDonald's Corp. and Sprint Corp.
