Tell Congress to Stop Al-Jazeera!

We need your help to keep Al-Jazeera International out of the U.S. media market.  What can you do?  You can tell your elected officials you don’t want to see Al-Jazeera on your TV!

You have two Senators and one member of the House representing you.  To make your voice heard, please call, write, or e-mail all three.

If you have about 10 minutes, you can e-mail all three of your representatives in Congress right now.  Use these links to find your Representative and both of your Senators:

Write Your Representative (Enter your state and ZIP code.)

Write Your Senators (Choose your state from the drop-down list.)

You can use the text below or create your own.  Remember to be courteous and respectful, and don’t forget to include your name and address!  (Without your postal address, your representative won’t know you are their constituent.)

Suggested text:

I am writing to urge you to introduce a congressional resolution saying that Al-Jazeera International should not be granted access to the U.S. media market.  Al-Jazeera television has served as an outlet for propaganda from terrorist organizations such as al Qaeda, Hamas and Hezbollah; refers on the air to suicide bombers as “martyrs;” and has inspired violence against Americans, as demonstrated by videotaped confessions of captured terrorists.

The media watchdog Accuracy in Media stands ready to assist you in this effort. Please contact AIM’s Cliff Kincaid at 202-364-4401, ext. 110, for further information or go to www.stopaljazeera.org.

Once you have contacted your representatives, please let us know!  Send an e-mail to info@aim.org with your name and the names of the members of Congress you contacted.  We will send your representatives more information about Al-Jazeera and Al-Jazeera International.
