The Occupus gets a mention on DC channel 7 local news

No photos or video of Occupus but they mentioned that Occupy was marching after the parade with a 70' octapus symbolizing corporate greed. The backdrop video was of floats.

When I heard it, I so wanted to see video of Occupus! SIGH I guess a mention of it in DC is some small progress.

If NBC cut to commercial, people need to know where COMCAST stands. Octafish Jan 2012 #2

when it came into view and it sounds like they did just that.

Still, it's progress that it wasn't relegated to the Do Dah Parade, something I wish someone would cover some day.
