Aggressive from the get-go. Islamic supremacism in action.

Where is it written that any carrier has to carry this jihadist poison?

Al Jazeera America is suing AT&T over its refusal to carry the new network The Blaze, August 21, 2013

Al Jazeera America went live Tuesday
without carriage on AT&T after the telecom giant said Monday night
it wouldn’t broadcast the network on its U-verse service due to a
contractual dispute, Bloomberg reported.

“Unfortunately AT&T’s decision to
unilaterally delete Al Jazeera America presented us with circumstances
that were untenable — an affiliate that has willfully and knowingly
breached its contractual obligations,” Al Jazeera America said in a
statement Tuesday night. “Al Jazeera America’s strong hope is to resolve
this matter quickly so that AT&T’s customers will have access to
our unbiased, fact-based and in-depth coverage of the news that is
important to Americans.”

An AT&T spokesman told Bloomberg
only that the issue was an “inability to come to terms on a new
agreement and due to certain breaches of the existing agreement we have
decided not to carry Current TV on U-verse.” Al Jazeera announced the
purchase of Al Gore’s former Current TV in January for $500 million.

Al Jazeera America has built up news
bureaus and correspondents in a dozen cities in the U.S., but still has
limited distribution in the country. AT&T U-verse has about 5
million U-verse customers.
