How NBC treats protesters in Massachusetts
Edited on Fri Oct-06-06 08:24 PM by Generic Other
My sister and her daughter are part of a peace group that vigils weekly in West Springfield. They drew a larger than usual crowd yesterday who lined the north end of the bridge. Someone called to alert the media of the event. The reply was outrageous. She was told to call again "if someone gets hit by a car."

As my niece stated: "the entire country is being hit by far worse than a car."

This is indicative of the MSM response to protests across the country. They are arrogant, dismissive, and remorseless, caring only for their ratings and their hair.

What a disgraceful response to sincere women who have stood up to protest Bush's crimes while the MSM has remained silent and complicit.

on edit: WWLP-TV22 in Springfield, Massachusetts, a local NBC affiliate.

1. whatever tv station that is...
the weekly peace vigil should be moved to their front door.

2. Seems like there's not that much reporting on any of the protests
Although they were held in 190 cities across the country. Sad.
