Is the mainstream press, mainly tv, covering the protest much?

I am writing a story for my college paper. What do you guys think? I guess we will have to see how many papers cover it, and how well, tommorrow.

3. what do you think?

I think the corporate media is not for us and hasn't been for quite some time. Most of the time I don't believe a word they say. Thank God for the internet.

5. CBS in Boston acknowledged the march

Said the headcount was 100,000. Segment wasn't more than 10 seconds.

6. ya i didnt think so

I hadn't seen anything except that traffic cam, although i heard you could see it on some pay channel on direct tv, and some talk of cspan, but nothing that would get to the general public. I just wanted to make sure. thanks.

7. Local DC news mentioned it.

C-SPAN covered the speeches. No wide shots to show the crowd.
The stage was controlled by ANSWER.org. They did not require the rhetoric to stay on message. Many of the speeches had to do with the agendas of other groups and not with Cindy and ending the war. It was like watching your favorite TV program that had a little of the program and a lot of commercials.
I hear Link-TV covered the concert, but I don't have a dish and couldn't watch it.
For the most part, if you wanted to see the crowds you had to observe them on the DC traffic cameras.

Here is the catch-all thread from the home page:
