ADD YOUR NAME TO THE THE PETITION HERE
April 9, 2018 UPDATE:
FOUR companies have pulled their advertising dollars from 97.1FM St. Louis talk radio because of all of our efforts AND Twitter has locked Jamie Allmans account for “violating our rules against abusive behavior”.
Please thank: Ruth’s Chris Steakhouse – @RuthsChris, The Gellman Team – @TheGellmanTeam, Chesterfield Fence & Deck @ChesterfieldFD and Palm Health – @PalmHealthSTL.
National media is paying attention – Think Progress, Raw Story, Washington Press, Media Matters and there will be more.
In addition, Twitter has locked Jamie Allman’s account for “violating our rules against abusive behavior”.
——————————–
We DEMAND advertisers immediately abandon Jamie Allman on his 97.1 KFTK-FM St. Louis talk show.
He has repeatedly attacked David Hogg, a Stoneman Douglas high school gun violence survivor and local St. Louis Parkway School District high school students on social media in the most vile unprofessional manner you can’t even imagine.
Jamie Allman has gone after one group of kids for standing up to the gun lobby and another group of kids in St. Louis for standing up against a “confederate” school board candidate – teenagers speaking out against hate and who just want to stay alive.
We have the tweets and believe us, they are cruel and obscene.
See the original St. Louis Riverfront Times story here with it all.
We demand advertisers stop being complicit. Stop supporting an adult who spews such hate.
We demand companies pull their advertising dollars from a talk show host who harasses kids in public with extreme crass language.
These are our kids. They need us to stand up for them.
In solidarity,
MO State Rep. Stacey Newman
Director, ProgressWomen.com
