AARP and Harford Insurance are co-advertisers on Al Jazeera America. The ads for GoHartfordAuto.com are running on the network almost every hour.
Al Jazeera, who showed disdain for Paris murder victims, is a news company that is owned by the non-democratic, monarch styled emirate of Qatar who allows wealthy citizens to financially support ISIS, supports the Muslim Brotherhood, backs the head of Hamas, espouses Islamic Sharia law and does not afford citizens freedom of the press.
National Review reported on January 27, 2015: Shortly after news broke of a deadly January 27 attack by Islamic terrorists on a hotel in Libya’s capital, Al Jazeera English executive Carlos van Meek shot out an email to his employees. “All: We manage our words carefully around here,” the network’s head of output wrote to staff at the Doha-based news channel’s New York and Washington, D.C. newsrooms. “So I’d like to bring to your attention some key words that have a tendency of tripping us up.” In an email obtained by National Review Online, van Meek warned the network’s journalists against the use of terms including “terrorist,” “militant,” “Islamist” and “jihad.” “One person’s terrorist is another person’s freedom fighter,” the Al Jazeera executive wrote. The word “extremist” was labeled off-limits. “Avoid characterizing people,” van Meek said. “Often their actions do the work for the viewer.”
The Washington Times reported on December 10, 2014 Qatar allows money to flow to Islamic State, other terrorists. “Qatar-based terror finance challenges have metastasized into a pressing, world-class crisis,” states the report by the Foundation for Defense of Democracies, warning the flow of money from private individuals in the Persian Gulf nation is likely only to continue without a “serious change in U.S. policy.”
Fox News reported on January 10, 2015 Leaked Al Jazeera emails reveal disdain for Paris murder victims. “Defending freedom of expression in the face of oppression is one thing; insisting on the right to be obnoxious and offensive just because you can is infantile,” wrote Khadr, quoting Time magazine, as he urged Al Jazeera staffers to consider that “I am Charlie” is an “alienating slogan – with us or against us type of statement – one can be anti-CH’s racism and ALSO against murdering people.”
The are many more reasons why Corporate America should not spend United States' consumer dollars with Al Jazeera America. Click here to read more.
The news media does influence the political positions of the public. The Islamist political positions held by Al Jazeera officials and/or owner, especially those positions demonstrated above, pose a threat to changing American public policy that has protected life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
Hartford Insurance and AARP certainly have the right to choose where they use their advertising dollars. You have the same right to object and choose to patronize other companies that won't give your consumer dollars to Al Jazeera. Two Hundred Seven (207) companies have stopped advertising on Al Jazeera America.
Florida Family Association has prepared an email for you to send to urge Hartford Insurance and AARP officials to stop advertising on Al Jazeera America.

Subj: RE: al jazerra america......
Dear Mr. Green:
We are sorry that you are considering leaving AARP. Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. Please be assured, your membership dues are not in any way associated with an advertisement you may have seen or heard about on Al Jazeera America. We are a non-partisan social mission organization and our advertising purchases are not based on political motives. We have no Political Action Committee (PAC) and are not part of, nor do we contribute to, any fund for political candidates at any level of government.
We have relationships with companies that market valuable products that meet our members’ needs, and an advertisement by one of those provider companies inadvertently aired on Al-Jazeera America. The placement was an error and isolated to Monday, March 9th. While AARP's logo may appear in those advertisements, those providers individually purchase that advertising time to promote their products and services.
Our work is solely focused on our social mission to help our members and all people 50+ live their best lives. We sincerely hope that you will choose to remain a member of AARP. Thank you for reaching out to us. We are committed to listening to our members and continually strive to improve our service.
Sincerely, Carrie
Carrie Seigenthaler, Manager Member Communications Ombudsman
Thank you for forwarding the reply. I don't know how they can say that. AARP is clearly on the ad and web site http://aarp.thehartford.com/landingpages/DRTV/Testimonial/index.shtml?N=PH0&QQ=DRTV&KEY=AARP&PLCode=000846
