Carlton Sherwood - Stolen Honor

During the 2004 presidential campaign, Sherwood produced the anti-Kerry documentary Stolen Honor, which presented the viewpoints of a number of American Vietnam War veterans who contend that John Kerry's anti-war activities harmed them. The journalistic standards of this piece were widely called into question. Sinclair Broadcasting planned to broadcast it on the eve of the general election, stating that they considered it to be newsworthy. After the ensuing controversy, Sinclair did not broadcast the film.

Stolen Honor was a project of Red, White and Blue Productions based in Harrisburg, PA, whose public affairs are managed by Quantum Communications, a company owned by lobbyist Charles Gerow. In 2000, Mr. Gerow ran on the Republican ticket for Congress. In 2003, he was nominated by President Bush to be a Member of the Benjamin Franklin Tercentenary Commission. Sherwood is the president of Red, White and Blue while Gerow acted as publicist for the film.
