Sinclair Rescinds Donation Following Criticism
- 6 years ago
The National Press Photographers Association says Sinclair Broadcasting has rescinded a "promised" $25,000 donation to its legal advocacy program. This after it made a public statement critical of Sinclair's coordinated "fake news" warning.
Sinclair has defended the on-air fake news warning. The company described it as just trying to promote its local news differentiating it from the unmoderated social media echo-chamber that it says other outlets report as news.
