Major Jewish Leaders Representing Millions of Jewish Americans Call on AT&T to ‘Reconsider' Decision to Remove Newsmax

The letter represents Jewish leaders from across the political spectrum. It was sent this week to AT&T CEO John Stankey, AT&T Board Chairman William Kennard, DirecTV CEO William Morrow, and TPG CEO Jon Winkelried, questions and challenges the recent removal of Newsmax's channel from DirecTV, specifically inquiring of the executives regarding any plans to return the network to their systems...

Noting their role as community leaders who "represent millions of Jewish Americans," the letter noted Newsmax's role as "a crucial way for us to reach our fellow Americans to share our perspectives on anti-Semitism, anti-Zionism, the State of Israel and other matters important to our community."

It continues by lamenting that "fair coverage of issues of concern, including coverage of the State of Israel, has been difficult to find in major media," while accusing many in the media of having "turned a blind eye to the sharp and dangerous rise of anti-Semitism in America."

In contrast, the letter asserts, Newsmax "has been an invaluable voice," as numerous Jewish figures who are "not found on other networks" are frequently featured guests.

"We have found Newsmax has offered fair coverage of Jewish issues and Israel — and has served as an important platform for us to speak out against the dangerous rise of anti-Semitism," it continues.

Millions of Jewish Americans need to dump everything AT@T.

ATT kept CNN on life support in order to attack Trump. ATT along with its telecom companion, Comcast, are malevolent operations that should be stripped of all media properties.

ATandT:AT&T’s CEO, John Stankey is Jewish by religion. He was raised in a Jew household and has faith in it. He got accustomed to their culture and tradition from an early age. Apparently, he is deracinated by now.

TPG CEO Jon Winkelried is also Jewish. I’m betting you can take the Marxist Jew out of the Shtetl, but you can’t take the Shtetl out of American Jewry. No chance AT&T will rethink the Newsmax action.

“Millions of Jewish Americans need to dump everything AT@T”

Jewish Americans are mostly liberals and don’t give a hoot. American Jews (big difference) will do it.

The Airwaves belong to everyone, how can ATT and Direct TV restrict who gets to use them.

[Colo9250]

I doubt that ATT and DirectTV will ever back down, being liberals they will run both into the ground.

Are Dish and Verizon stepping up with offers to pay for contract balances?

I don’t understand why this is even an issue when you can stream Newsmax for free on Pluto app channel 236?
