an action alert urging their followers to pressure advertisers to drop their sponsorship of the showThe way to fight this is to provide counter-pressure to advertisers. It's not really a 1st amendment issue. Can't you imagine organizing a boycott of advertisers of a TV "documentary" that "proved" that 9/11 was secretly ordered by Bush? Or one that "proved" that gun ownership caused high crime rates?
Boycotts do work both ways, you know.
As far as the 1st amendment goes, that applies to government suppression of free speech, not civilian-led boycotts aimed at reducing commercial sponsorship for a given TV or radio broadcast.
Now, if US govt employees are aiding and abetting CAIR, then that's a horse of a different color.
Bingo, samtheman. It is impossible for CAIR to violate the 1st Amendment rights of someone. As for Savage’s lawsuit, the 1st Amendment will actually work against him in his claims against CAIR for copyright infringement.
