I just received this from Pfizer:



Thank you for contacting us to voice your concerns about Pfizer and
advertising on Sinclair Broadcast Stations. Please be advised that we will not be advertising during the documentary, "Stolen Honor".

Pfizer buys advertising on national networks like ABC, NBC and CBS that
Sinclair airs, and occasionally on local stations. Decisions about
placing our advertising are guided by what programs are most likely to
reach people who might benefit from messages about our medicines and the diseases they treat. Our advertising placement with a network is not in
any way an endorsement of programming decisions.

We truly appreciate the time taken to express your thoughts and concerns
with us, and hope this clarifies any concerns you have about our
intentions as an advertiser. Thank you for allowing us to share our
thoughts with you.

Yours truly,

Dorothy Wetzel
Vice President, Consumer Marketing Group
Pfizer Global Pharmaceuticals

Please visit our Corporate Citizenship website at

This email is in response to your communication to Pfizer,Inc. You have
not subscribed or been added to any communication list. You will not
receive any other emails from Pfizer, unless you request additional
communication.

That was a loser! In reverse order:

That would have been a good, corporate statement. But then they mess all over their pants by saying, in effect, "but I don't really mean it":

(That is, unless they have decided in their corporate wisdom that their products are only marketable to Democrats.)
