Tell CNN that hate speech shall not be tolerated
Hi there all,
Check this out (following text is from the From MoveOn website):
CNN host Lou Dobbs has done more than anyone in the media to spread misinformation and hatred about Latinos. Yet CNN continues to broadcast his show, even as they are courting Latino viewers. It's time for that to end.
Join us in telling CNN it's time for Dobbs to go.
As President of CNN, it is imperative that you act quickly and decisively to drop Dobbs from your network, and send the message that CNN does not tolerate hate speech.

From MoveOn email:
Dobbs perpetuates damaging stereotypes about immigrants—like blaming them for an imaginary leprosy epidemic, and wildly exaggerating that "illegal aliens" make up a third of the prison population. He also gives ample time to anti-immigrant extremists, even appearing last month as an honored guest at the convention of FAIR, a leading anti-immigrant hate group linked to vigilantes charged with murdering a 9-year old girl and her immigrant father in their home.
Add your voice and tell CNN that hate speech won't be tolerated. Thank you.
