Protest Purpose:
AT&T - The parent company of DirecTV plans to drop One America News .network from thier national cable channel lineups.
OANN has sued DirecTV, AT&T, and AT&T Chairman William Kennard. The lawsuit accuses DirecTV board of directors of making a “political” decision to remove OANN.
On November 8, 2021, 16 liberal organizations (including Media Matters) sent a joint letter to the CEOs of AT&T and DirecTV, stating:
“We call on DirecTV to stop carrying OANN. AT&T, you hold a 70 percent equity stake in DirecTV and appoint half of DirecTV’s board. Your equity interest brings with it tremendous influence. We call on you to do the right thing and demand that DirecTV take all available means to end its relationship with OANN, so that its customers are no longer forced to subsidize hate and disinformation.”
Bianca Gracia from Latinos For America First and The America Project, as well as Dr. Angelina Farella from America’s Frontline Doctors alongside many protesters are scheduled to gather in front of AT&T Headquarters to make their voices heard.
