Letter to Members of Congress Tells Truth About Channel One

May 24, 2001

From Jim Metrock: I just sent a six page letter to U.S. Senators and Representatives. In this letter, I use graphic language to describe the sleazy and pro-drug entertainment that Channel One has advertised this school year. By clicking on the link you can read the letter, but I warn you about the content. I pulled no punches with legislators because they need to know what this company is doing to kids.
What I really hate about this whole Channel One mess is that they force me to use the explicit language that is contained in the movies and TV shows they want children to see. Unless I tell people about it, it may not get told. That said, if you want to see what our schools and Channel One are urging our children to see, click here. Extremely offensive content ahead. (Note: Jack Abramoff is the hired-gun lobbyist for Channel One in Washington, DC. )
