The Red Shirts.. Another media meme bites the dust.........

The media has told us that the Thailand redshirt protesters were just bitter-ender supporters of a telecom tycoon. Just a local issue...etc....

Well, it looks like they are mad about the exact same thing everybody else in the world is mad about.

snippet>>>>>>

As they retreated, protesters set fire to the country’s stock exchange and a number of buildings including a major shopping mall, two banks, a movie theater and a television station.

The stock exchanges, the banks and the MEDIA!

Greece, Iceland and now Thailand. Who's next?
