Apparently the MSM isn’t anti-Israel enough for these people.
(Reuters) — Grassroots activists are going to deliver a popular online petition asking Comcast Cable to carry Al-Jazeera English nationally to Comcast headquarters in Philadelphia on Monday.
The petition, launched by Rethink Progress on change.org, has already attracted more than 23,000 signatures.
“Al Jazeera English (AJE) is an internationally acclaimed news network that broadcasts to over 250 million households in 120 countries on 6 continents, yet it is available in only 5 places in the entire U.S. (Washington, DC; Burlington, VT; Bristol County, RI: Toledo, OH; and New York City, NY),” the petition reads. “This needs to change. As one of the largest cable providers in the U.S., it is time for Comcast Cable to get with the program and provide its customers with full cable access to Al Jazeera English.”
According to its website, Rethink Press is “a grassroots group that is working to raise awareness about the state of the journalism and media in the United States.”
