Close to two dozen prominent Jewish leaders from across the United States are demanding AT&T return Newsmax to its DirecTV lineup.

A group of 23 Jewish community leaders wrote to DirecTV’s parent company, questioning and challenging the recent removal of Newsmax from the satellite content distributor.

Former Harvard professor Alan Dershowitz, former Sens. Joe Lieberman, I-Conn., and Norm Coleman, R-Minn., former U.S. Ambassador to Israel David Friedman, Republican Jewish Coalition’s Matt Brooks, and Zionist Organization of America’s President Mort Klein were among the signers.

Other signatories to the letter included some of the best known names in Jewish religious and political circles, including Rabbi Arthur Schneier, former ADL chief Abraham Foxman, and Malcolm Hoenlein.

The group stated 13 million homes being denied access to Newsmax include many Jewish Americans.
