DIRECTV censors US Campaign to end the Israeli Occupation's Gaza Strip TV


Take Action: DIRECTV Censors Our Gaza Strip TV Ad!


Watch the ad by clicking here or above.
Thanks to a generous emergency grant from Cultures of Resistance, we produced a 30-second commercial about the U.S. role in Israel's war on and siege of the Gaza Strip.

We thought, "What better way to bring this important information to the attention of people in the United States than to advertise nationally on DIRECTV?" the largest satellite television subscription service in the country.

After detailed discussions with DIRECTV, including agreement on rates, times, and network placements of the ad, when we gave them the final product, they abruptly decided not to do business with us.

This blatant act of censorship is preventing millions of U.S. households from learning the truth about our government's crucial role in enabling Israel's war on and siege of Palestinians in the Gaza Strip.
