===Fourth television advertisement===
On August 31, 2004, a fourth advertisement<ref>{{cite web|date=2004-10-12|title=Medals (script)|publisher=SBVT website|url=http://swiftvets.com/medalsscript.html|archive-url=http://webarchive.loc.gov/all/20040916233433/http://swiftvets.com/medalsscript.html |archive-date=September 16, 2004 }}</ref><ref>{{cite web|date=2004-11-08|title=Medals (video)|format=WMV|publisher=SBVT website|url=http://swift3.he.net/~swift3/medals.wmv|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20041130023615/http://swift3.he.net/~swift3/medals.wmv|archive-date=2004-11-30|url-status=dead}}</ref> was released by SBVT. The advertisement described Kerry as a man who "renounced his country's symbols", a reference to a Vietnam War protest where Kerry threw war decorations over the fence of the U.S. Capitol building on April 23, 1971. The advertisement also contained edited video clips of Kerry from a [[WRC-TV]] program called ''Viewpoints'', in which he stated that he gave back "six, seven, eight, nine" (in response to a question: "How many did you give back, John?"); it then included a clip from another part of that interview where Kerry stated "and that was the medals themselves", although in the interview it was not in reference to the decorations he returned.<ref>{{cite news|title=Did Kerry Discard Vietnam Medals?
