Ensure fairness for Mumia Abu-Jamal on NBC's Today Show

Mumia Abu-Jamal

On Dec. 6, NBC’s “The Today Show” intends to air a show about Michael Smerconish and Maureen Faulkner’s new book “Murdered By Mumia.” According to the announcement on Michael Smerconish’s website, the show is planning to feature both Smerconish and Faulkner as guests.

The International Concerned Family and Friends of Mumia Abu-Jamal (FreeMumia.com), Journalists for Mumia (Abu-Jamal-News.com), and Educators for Mumia (EmajOnline.com) have initiated a media-activist campaign urging people to write “The Today Show” at today@msnbc.com asking them to fairly present both sides of the Mumia Abu-Jamal/Daniel Faulkner case, by also featuring as guests,Linn Washington, Jr. (Philadelphia Tribune columnist and Associate Professor of Journalism at Temple University) and Dr. Suzanne Ross (Clinical Psychologist and Co-Chair of the Free Mumia Abu-Jamal Coalition, NYC).

A sample letter accompanied by an extensive informational press pack [both available at www.millions4mumia.org—eds.] has been created to use for contacting “The Today Show.” Please take a minute and contact them to ensure fair media coverage of this controversial and important case.

Sincerely,

The International Concerned Family
and Friends of Mumia Abu-Jamal
Journalists for Mumia Abu-Jamal
Educators for Mumia Abu-Jamal
