    Armenian Lobby Takes Media Under Close Scrutiny

    One of the prominent "radical" organizations among Armenian lobby
    groups in the US, the Armenian National Committee of America (ANCA)
    has reacted with a seven article action plan to "protest genocide
    denial" by Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan.

    The plan wholly foresees using the US media to protest against the
    administration of those who deny the genocide and for sending
    bombardments of thanks to those who support them. Time magazine
    apparently "ignored" the so-called genocide by distributing DVDs with
    this months publication and was protested against by the lobby group
    as the Washington Post, which accepted an advertisement denying the
    "genocide", will also be protested. The Armenian lobby plans to thank
    The New York Times for publishing their advertisements. NBC TV was
    harshly reacted to due to the manner of its objection relating to the
    issue. The ANCA also plans to protest US President George W. Bush
    "since he has not called on them to help end the ignorance regarding
    the genocide" along with the US Secretary Department for not reacting
    to the cancellation of the "genocide" conference that was due to be
    held in Istanbul. The organization also called for support to the
    so-called genocide draft that will be presented to the House of
    Representatives.
