"This is extremely dangerous to our democracy" One line that has entered the delivery of local news shows on stations owned by Sinclair Broadcasting all over the country. Dan Lothian & Jimmy Young have been talking about Sinclair media's practice of forcing their political agenda into local news casts all over the country since last September on Behind The Media. Now with Sinclair poised to make another acquisition of a major brand, Tribune Media, Sinclair could reach 3 of every 4 people in the US. The separation of editorial from commercial business is taking a dangerous turn. It's Media vs. the POTUS in a war of words & in this case video created by Deadspin.

Behind The Media is available on iTunes, Stitcher, and the CLNS Media Mobile App. You can follow the show on Twitter @LittleParkMedia using the hashtag #BehindTheMedia
