It'sTime To Get Lou Dobbs And His Hate Speech Off The Air

Edited on Tue Aug-11-09 07:49 PM by Bobbieo
Yesterday, our friends at Media Matters for America, who are dedicated to comprehensively monitoring, analyzing, and correcting conservative misinformation in the U.S. media, caught Lou Dobbs promoting hate and inciting violence towards Governor Howard Dean.

With violence from right-wing extremist groups on the rise and Republican backed mobs hanging cardboard versions of members of congress in effigy, Lou Dobbs' statement is dangerous. Enough is enough.It's time for CNN and the United Stations Radio Network to fire Lou Dobbs.

This isn't the first time Lou Dobbs has used the air waves to promote hate and embarrass CNN.

His relentless promotion of debunked, racially charged conspiracy theories about President Obama's birth certificate have already seriously damaged CNN's credibility. Yet, Lou Dobbs remains on the air.

Now, he's gone too far. He's not just making CNN look bad, he's inciting violence to stop Governor Dean from fighting for President Obama's health insurance option. That's not just un-American, it's irresponsible and dangerous.

It's up to us to make sure CNN and the United Stations Radio Network know we've had enough.

CALL NOW AND DEMAND LOU DOBBS BE TAKEN OFF THE AIR -
CNN - (404) 827-1500

United Stations Radio Network
New York – (212) 869-1111
Los Angeles – (310) 268-9292

This isn't just about my brother Howard; this is about the America we all want to live in.
Jim Dean, Chair
Democracy for America
