Staples’ Sinclair Boycott Story Updated

We’ve updated the Staples-Sinclair story post here.

The latest update we posted says:

Addendum 2 6:41 PM: Paul Capelli of Staples just returned my call. I am posting this quick to get out the basic message, and will elaborate ASAP with an additional update with details.

Basically, it was a good call. Staples believes the facts have been misrepresented by MediaMatters.org. Staples is NOT, according to Paul Capelli, boycotting or declining to purchase future advertising from Sinclair Broadcasting or from Sinclair News.

I wanted to get this online, but will post soon with more details…

Addendum: See above for more on the Paul Capelli conversation.
