LV killers & Alex Jones: Here's what YOU can do to get Jones OFF the air in Nevada! pls DO+K&R
Here's a chance to actually do something about the spreading insanity in our country. If you agree that the Las Vegas shootings were domestic terrorism, and that Alex Jones is enabling that terrorism through his radio broadcasts, then take action by contacting the Las Vegas radio station that carries Jones and tell them they are being recklessly negligent in keeping him on the air.
Station 790 KBET in Las Vegas is still carrying the Alex Jones Show despite the horrific murders. Sending emails and calling the station at this time could have a strong effect. If we are successful, we could expand this effort to the rest of the country. Alex Jones can do his internet and youtube podcast all he wants, but we don't have to carry him on our FCC regulated public airwaves that are officially in "the public interest."
These efforts always work better when the emails are polite and professional and appeal to the station's self interest in not wanting their station (& its advertisers) to be publicly associated with this kind of content. So Let's Roll! here's what you can do in order of difficulty:
Easy >>>>>>>1. SEND AN EMAIL. Here's the big 3 emails for the station, the GM, the program manager and the sales executive: edm@krck.com, andy@790talknow.com, debby@927rev.com.
Email those three email addresses with a message similar to this one:
Subject: Las Vegas shooting, Alex Jones & 790 KBET
Dear Edward Morawski, Andy Vierra and Debby McKay,
In the wake of the Las Vegas shootings of policemen and a citizen by two deranged individuals, I'd like to ask you about your programming.
Are you aware that a program you carry, the Alex Jones show, is the main venue where people like shooters receive their paranoid and extremist views? Dangerous, patently false claims that there is a massive government effort to take our guns away, that they are victims of a tyranny enacting multiple conspiracies to harm them (chemtrails etc.), that people who use violence against the government are "patriots," etc.
Free speech is very important to all Americans, but it doesn't mean all extremist views have the right to be on the public airwaves (Alex Jones has plenty of other venues--there are podcasts that carry everything from Holocaust denial and the KKK that I'm sure you would never allow on your station.)
Given the shooting in Las Vegas, it's especially surprising that your station would carry a show that encourages this kind of dangerous, hateful incitement on the airwaves. I understand that you may not have been aware of what exactly is broadcast on that program, and I'm sure your sponsors would not appreciate being associated with it.
Does this make you consider canceling the Alex Jones show? I look forward to your reply.
respectfully,
Easy >>>>>>>>>>1b. Social Media: Send them the message through Facebook and on their page:
