Binder & Binder stops advertising on Al Jazeera America.

Florida Family Association tapes ten hours of programing on Al Jazeera America aka CurrentTV every day.  The Florida Family Association office communicates with each advertiser no less than once per week.  Top advertisers are strategically featured one at a time because there are so few of them.

The Binder & Binder responded with the following email:

Hello:

Thank you for bringing this situation to my attention. Please be assured that Binder and Binder  will never sponsor Al Jazeera.  I have asked our Television Agency to look into this situation immediately.

Sincerely,

Peter Mendelson

That is good to hear.  We were in the process of choosing the next company to profile and Binder & Binder is at the top of the list.  When will your ads stop?

Canceled as of 4/1/13.

Binder & Binder advertisements stopped airing on Al Jazeera America on March 31, 2013.  If you would like to thank Binder & Binder for their decision please send your email to Peter Mendelson at peterm@binderandbinder.com

Al Jazeera, the Arabic news cable channel headquartered in the Middle East (Doha, Qatar), purchased the CurrentTV channel which has the potential of reaching millions of viewers in the United States.  Al Jazeera is a mouthpiece for radical Islamists.  Al Jazeera America is the new, tentative name for CurrentTV.

Your support of these email campaigns is making a difference.  Thank you.
