Merck & Co. has been a new top advertiser on Al Jazeera America since August 10, 2015. Advertisements for the Merck & Co. product Belsomra have frequently aired on the channel. Florida Family Association tapes ten hours of programing on Al Jazeera America every day. The Florida Family Association office communicates with each advertiser no less than once per week. Merck & Co. ads for Belsomra continue to air.
Merck KGaA in Germany informed Florida Family Association that they have no association with or influence on the business decisions of Merck & Co. in America.
Al Jazeera, whose leaders espouse hate for Israel, who showed disdain for Paris murder victims, is a news company that is owned by the non-democratic, monarch styled emirate of Qatar who allows wealthy citizens to financially support ISIS, supports the Muslim Brotherhood, backs the head of Hamas, espouses Islamic Sharia law and does not afford citizens freedom of the press. There are many reasons why Corporate America should not spend United States' consumer dollars with Al Jazeera America. Click here to read more.
The news media does influence the political positions of the public. The Islamist political positions held by Al Jazeera officials and/or owner, especially those positions demonstrated above, pose a threat to changing American public policy that has protected life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
Merck & Co. certainly has the right to choose where they use their advertising dollars. You have the same right to object and choose to patronize other companies that won't give your consumer dollars to Al Jazeera.
