Obama Attempting To Force Discovery Channel to Drop Palin’s New Show
Change.org (Obama White House) ^ | April 6, 2010 | Defenders of Wildlife Action Fund

Here’s a copy of an e-mail sent to me by an operative.

Urge Discovery to Drop Sarah Palin’s New Show

Discovery Communications — the parent company of The Discovery Channel, Animal Planet, TLC and others, and known for their wildlife-focused programs — is planning to produce an 8-part TV show on Sarah Palin’s Alaska.

Sarah Palin’s Alaska is a “reality TV” show that aims to showcase the “powerful beauty of Alaska,” according to Discovery’s TLC website.

But the real Sarah Palin is no friend of Alaska’s natural heritage. While in office, the former governor fought against increased protections for endangered whales and America’s dwindling populations of polar bears in favor of oil and gas development, supported dangerous drilling for oil in the Alaska National Wildlife Refuge, and escalated Alaska’s brutal aerial wolf-killing program.

Yet according to reports, Palin will earn about $1 million per episode from the nature-focused series.

Act now, Send a powerful message to Discovery Communications expressing your disappointment at their action and urging them to drop Sarah Palin’s new show from their programming schedule.

It’s important that the truth about Sarah Palin’s record not be swept under the rug by her celebrity. Palin’s disrespect for the environment and disregard for science and has done real damage to Alaska’s wildlife and endangered Alaska’s natural heritage.

Send a message to Discovery Communications and let them know that Sarah Palin doesn’t deserve to represent the “powerful beauty of Alaska” in front of millions of people.

Take action today>

Thanks for taking a stand,

and this message:

Targeting: Mr. David Zaslav (President and CEO, Discovery Communications)

Sponsored by: Defenders of Wildlife Action Fund

Sarah Palin has signed on with reality TV producers and Discovery Communications to star in a new TV show about Alaska and its outdoors.

But the ugly reality is that as governor for only two-and-a-half years, Sarah Palin escalated a bloody aerial wolf-slaughter campaign that continues to this very day. She even planned to offer a $150 bounty for the severed forelimb of each killed wolf.

Palin also fought against increased protections for endangered Cook Inlet beluga whales and America’s dwindling populations of polar bears.

Sign our petition to Discovery Communications — and let them know that Sarah Palin doesn’t deserve to represent the “powerful beauty of Alaska” in front of millions of people.

The White House should keep its grubby little fingers OUT of this deal. I doubt this is even legal.

I heard that she had the Alaskan National Guard helicopters machine gunning wolves and Eskimos, and that she would watch the videos and laugh maniacally, while plotting to destroy America with conservatism.

They have to be sued. Sarah Palin has enough dough from her book to do that. It will also help her creds vis a vis the Rats. Bring it on, Bummer.
