Then that settles it. You can't get any more objective than Sinclair.

What's that? Sinclair what?

Job Creators Network ("JCN") is association of corporate leaders best known for its E2E employee communications program, which encourages CEOs to pressure their employees to vote for and otherwise support the corporate political agenda. In 2015, it launched the web-based advocacy campaign, "Defend Main Street," which attacks the National Labor Relations Board’s decision to consider McDonald's a "joint employer" of franchise employees, possibly making the corporate giant liable for labor law violations.

JCN describes itself as a "nonpartisan organization founded by entrepreneurs like Home Depot co-founder Bernie Marcus who believe that government policies are breaking the backs of business owners and killing job creation."[1] Based in Texas and Georgia, JCN is comprised of two non-profit organizations: a 501(c)(3) foundation -- Job Creators Network Foundation -- and a 501(c)(4) advocacy group -- Job Creators Network Inc.[2][3]

JCN has ties to notorious PR flak Richard Berman, president of Berman & Co. Berman specializes in front groups and misleading PR campaigns.

JCN describes its own mission as "involv[ing] employees in the fight to defend free enterprise," "inform[ing] employees how government policies impact America’s jobs," and "inspir[ing] employees to become more informed citizens."[1] JCN believes that "employees, particularly non-union employees, are an untapped reservoir of support for free enterprise"[4] -- i.e. policies like increasing the definition of full-time work from 30 hours per week to 40 hours per week for healthcare coverage,[5] cutting the corporate tax rate to 25 percent,[6] making reductions in entitlement programs,[6] destroying or suppressing the minimum wage,[7] and so-called "right to work" that harms employee unions.

Come on Thomas. You're not being fair if you going to introduce facts into the conversation.
That ain't right.

He has a right to the information. He also has a right to use it as he sees fit. With some people here it gets to winning or proving a point way to easy. I never get that feeling with him. I can't change anyone's mind. He will change his own mind, or he won't. I'm OK with either.
