Where are the MSM articles on the protests? I can't even find a |
|
good article in our own circles. Where is Will Pitts article about the protests? DU's articles about the protests? NYTimes, Washington Posts? Are there any good articles out there about the protests yesterday? I cant even find out how many people were there. Help. Was it a flop? I watched it on C-span and it looked pretty impressive. Not many big name speakers but some and I was very touched by Mr. Berg's speech. Very sad. Please direct me to the good articles.

MSM articles are out there. There was one in my local rag this morning here in Houston.
But.. it made the protests look small and ineffective.. which maybe they were.
The problem on the street in Houston was that there were more policemen lining the street than there were protesters, some of whom left early because of the overwhelming police presence.. according to the article.
I did the no damn dime thing yesterday. It was easy.

4. The MSM is not the people's friend. They are owned, operated, and |
|
controlled by the RW, neocon, oligarchies that make money off of wars and insurgencies.

5. There are a lot out there |

They have it in my local paper, I heard it all night on local news stations, they were all over when I signed on the net this morning. I was just thinking how great it was that this time the protesting made an impact. You don't see any stories anywhere? This was one of the largest, if not THE largest protest of an inauguration of an American president. Of course they weren't going to have it as top story news, that is ridiculous.
