Hi there,

The media can be the greatest force for peace on Earth. Instead, all too often, it’s wielded as a weapon of war. That's why we have to take the media back. Thanks to a group of generous donors, all donations made today will be DOUBLED, which means your $15 gift is worth $30. With your contribution, we can continue to go to where the silence is, to bring you the voices of the silenced majority – those calling for peace in a time of war, demanding action on the climate catastrophe and advocating for racial and economic justice. Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you so much!

World Opinion About U.S. Falls To New Low

HeadlineMar 17, 2004

A new international poll conducted by the Pew Research Center has found that support around the world for the United States has fallen to a new low. Support for President Bush is especially low. In Germany just 14 percent of the country view Bush favorably. In 1991, the same poll found 75 percent of Germans viewed Bush’s father favorably. Support for Bush in Muslim countries is even lower. The director of the poll said “This poll says to me the discontent with America is a long-term problem that U.S. leaders have to confront. We’ve never seen ratings as low as this for America.”
