Daily Caller: A bipartisan group of congressional lawmakers sent a Tuesday letter to Jeff Sessions urging the attorney general to force Al Jazeera to register as a state-controlled agent of Qatar in accordance with the Foreign Agents Registration Act.
The letter’s signatories include Senator Ted Cruz and Congressmen Josh Gottheimer, Lee Zeldin, Ron DeSantis, Matt Gaetz, Louie Gohmert, Vicente Gonzalez, Darrell Issa, Mike Johnson, Peter King, Ted Poe, Tom Reed, Keith Rothfus, David Rouzer, Steve Stivers, Tom Suozzi, Carlos Curbelo, Steve Chabot and John Ratcliffe.
“Founded by state charter in 1996 and headquartered in Doha, the Al Jazeera Media Network maintains an estimated global reach of 310 million people in more than 160 countries, and a presence in U.S. cities including Washington, New York, Chicago, Miami and Los Angeles,” the letter reads. “Its broadcasts are easily accessible, including via social media, and, as stated by the U.S. Ambassador to Qatar in 2009 , Al Jazeera is ‘one of Qatar’s most valuable political and diplomatic tools’ and was ‘used as a chip’ to shape Qatar’s relations with other governments.” more here
So Al Jazeera Media Network is a state controlled propaganda tool.
MSNBC, CNN, NBC, ABC and CBS are just as politically driven and controlled as Al Jazeera and should be forced to register as well.
Lest we forget UNiVision… a channel that has more influence than Al-Jizzrag does. Are they going to register?
Shouldn’t every foreign Media register ???
Sessions better find his friggin’ nads, and that right QUICK! 😡
If we wanted this much inefficiency out of the DOJ, we coulda left Holder there! >:-(
How about so-called anti-fa?! They’re an international terror organization, too. Never, ever in my lifetime did I expect to see violent commies running the show in academe.
If they’re not already, add CAIR and every other muzzie representing offshoot and all their members (foreign and US citizens) to register as a foreign agent.
What about Soros? How bout the New York Times?
