The union for the Baltimore Sun complained it is republishing flawed articles from Sinclair TV stations controlled by its new owner.
The front page of the Baltimore Sun after it was purchased in January by David W. Smith. The union representing the newspaper’s journalists said Monday that articles that do not meet the Sun’s standards have appeared on its website, including a one-sided story about immigration policies and an op-ed by the Sun’s co-owner likening the “transgender movement” to a “cancer.”
Sinclair’s local television stations have long staked out politically conservative perspectives in its news programming. In 2018, for example, Sinclair broadcasters around the country were compelled to read a script prepared by Sinclair during the newscast that parroted Donald Trump’s rhetoric about the “fake” news media.
“I assume the Guild reciprocally appreciates legitimate managerial prerogatives in the journalistic enterprise. Constructive criticism is always welcome even if ultimately found unpersuasive,” he added.
