(As received - It is truly shocking that our government has taken an active role in blocking and banning AlJazeera as a news source. The message I guess is that the only acceptable sources of news and information are those controlled by the big wealthy corporates like Rupert Murdoch, Mortimer Zuckerman, Sun Moon etc that typically push a very strong Zionist agenda. Shouldn't that be counterbalanced? Don't we have freedom of press?)

I don't know about you all, but when looking for an unbiased, reliable, and CONSTANT news source over the past few weeks, Al Jazeera English was the only network that delivered. Al Jazeera executives have attempted to convince American cable networks to carry their channel in the past, but to no avail. Al Jazeera is now a hot international commodity following their superb coverage of the revolution and the campaign is picking up steam. YOU can help convince American networks by flooding their inboxes with already created e-mails demanding Al Jazeera English be carried on basic packages.

Go to http://english.aljazeera.net/demandaljazeera/ and on the far right enter your zip code. Choose your cable provider and on the next page enter your name and e-mail address and click send. It's that simple. You don't even have to enter your real name or e-mail address. Send one to each cable provider. Send multiple e-mails to each. We can help combat the propaganda western media has indulged in with a reliable network where 'the spin' truly stops.

**One problem I faced when I would click on Dish Network or DirecTV is it would have a city that did not correlate to the zip code I entered. I went to the text of the e-mail and edited it myself entering my correct city. But hey, the more e-mails from different cities you send out, the better.
