Sudan Divesture 

Sudan Divesture

Since Sinclair Broadcasting anounced plans to air an anti-Kerry "documentary," pro-Kerry and other Democratic groups have mobilized to bring financial pressure on Sinclair through its advertisers and its stockholders. Though it remains to be seen whether this will have the desired effect of halting the broadcast, it has cast wider attention on Sinclair's scheme and has seemingly already had a negative effect on the company's stock value and finances.

Last week I wrote of moves to bring financial pressure to bear on Sudan, to make that nation pay a financial price for its genocidal practices. Today I want to direct you to a website that tells you how you can make a difference.

What is being done to change the practices of Sinclair broadcasting is good and I in no way want to diminish the negative impact of that company's practices or the goal or the potential accomplishments of the boycott movement against them. People are dying in Sudan, however. Please help out there, too. Lives may depend on your actions.
