There has been discussion in natter about Sinclair forcing an hour+ long anti-kerry ad on it's affiliates prempting normal programming Nov. 1.

There are two actions against it:

1) For those who live in Florida and North and South Carolina to take advantage of this being license renewal season to challenge licenses [link]

2) For everybody there is a boycott, contacting advertiserers and telling them you will no longer buy their products if they advertise on Sinclair affilates.

PICK OF THE WEEK

BRIAN DYKSTRA: CORNERED & ALONE: Writer/performer Brian Dykstra (whose short play Mick Just Shrugs, about a student who burns a flag as part of a school project, will be published by NYTE next year) rants and jests persuasively in his one-man comedy performance. It's about the state of our country and the state of our world. It's a wakeup call that's especially timely in these weeks before the next presidential election. Democrats will like much of what they hear, but Republicans and Independents and especially Undecideds will get a lot out of Dykstra's outrageously funny and intelligent show.

New England and New York Buffistas:

There will be a farewell party for billytea at our house on Saturday, November 6th.

Please let me know via email as soon as possible if you plan to attend. I'm thinking this will be very casual--music and food (which hopefully people will bring), dvd viewing (billytea's choice), and basic good-natured frolicking.

Discussion welcome in F2F thread.

P.S. Long live the serial comma!

Some of you may remember Herself from the Bitches and Fic threads.

She's just sold her first novel.
