Sign Petition Condemning CNN for Censorship of Tulsi in Townhall

Submitted by sactoprogressive on Mon, 01/27/2020 - 11:42pm

CNN, reflecting their ongoing bias against Tulsi Gabbard, has decided not to include her in their upcoming series of townhall presentations for New Hampshire. A petition which can be signed in protest can be found here:
https://www.change.org/p/cnn-save-democracy-invite-tulsi?recruiter=10372...

The link also provides additional background on the basis for their exclusion. Your comments on this path of censorship and collective action we might take to address it are appreciated. Would also appreciate help/instructions on pasting an address as a clickable link such as the above. Thanks.

I don't know what Change.org is. They immediately started asking me for money after I signed up.

I love me some Tulsi Gabbard though. Thanks for supporting her!

@Situational Lefty I think the request for a donation is part of the Tulsi campaign machine though can add that I didn't see this my first pass through. Either way, whether donating or not, I think expressing a complaint is a good place to start.

@sactoprogressive Complaining is important.

Thank you for posting. I was mostly just tacking a comment on your board because I was afraid your post would be ignored like so many other posts about Tulsi!

@Situational Lefty Change.org does lots of petitions initiated by individuals. I know that in some cases Change.org gets the funds requested after you sign and the initiator gets nothing. I learned this from a follow up email from another petition. I suspect that this is generally the case. However, one's name on a petition can certainly be used by the initiator. For example, one might get an email asking you to contribute to Tulsi's campaign.
