Dear Viacom, I am a concerned member of the Cancel NickMom movement. There has been a lot of discussion over the last week about what it is all about. Many people have asked what our intentions are. I would like to take a second to outline our goals and what we are asking of Viacom/NickMom. We don't mind if you like NickMom and the programming. Everyone is free to watch whatever they like. What we do not agree with is that the programming airs on the 24 hour preschool channel. We would like to see Viacom choose one of the two options: 1. Move the programming to another channel. 2. Cancel the NickMom programming altogether. Now you know what we are attempting to accomplish. This movement has an open door policy. Anyone can join, even if you like the NickMom programming. Companies who have pulled their NickMom ads include Green Giant, Cheerios and Fisher-Price. As many of you may know, Viacom, the parent company of Nick Jr. decided to start airing NickMom. NickMom is a profanity laced, perverted "comedy". NickMom starts at 10:00PM Eastern and 7:00PM Pacific. With three children under four years of age and paying extra per month to have the NickJr channel, NickMom is one of the worst signs of corporate greed and bad decision making I have seen in years. This led me to create www.cancelnickmom.com to provide unhappy viewers a place to vent and organize an assault to have this program removed or altered. We are the voice of millions of parents. We will not stand quietly while Viacom's corporate greed and irresponsiblility destroy one of the only 24 hour preschool channels. Why we do not want NickMom on the air: 1. Foul language and bad images for young children to see and hear are not appropriate for a "preschool" channel. 2. Only changing the format to collect extra advertisement revenue, not due to customer demand or request. 3. Airing NickMom at 10:00PM Eastern, leaving the western United States with no NickJr after 7:00PM. Steps we can take to end NickMom: 1. Write an email expressing your discontent with Viacom's decision to air NickMom. We also provide templates for your use. 2. Use your cable providers on-demand function to watch your shows, do not watch Nick Jr. 3. Boycott Nick Jr. Watch other channels such as Sprout or Disney Jr. 4. Call and/or email Viacom and companies advertizing during NickMom hours and express your discontent with the programming choice. Cancelnickmom.com will be your centralized voice providing support and help to allow you a chance to voice our concerns and displeasure with the new programming. We have the power to make a change. It might not happen over a month’s time, but we will prevail. This Act repeals NickMom and permanently moves it to Nick@nite or Nickelodeon.
