1. I think we have to give up worrying about the media's non-coverage of our marches.

Or gatherings. If we do it, we should do it because we think it is worthwhile in and of itself. And that's fine. Folks got together with other folks to share their values and their hopes. It's worth it.

So let's let go of ever thinking we'll get equal coverage of our events. There were 1.1 million people at a reproductive rights march about 7 years ago and it was almost ignored by the media...1.1 million! That's when I said "No more."

Several times they would have a half dozen people on the podium that would just say one word each. They had the best labor speaker alive today there (Richard Trumka) and he only said a few words. The labor leader that did speak was just awful. Beck gets Sarah Palin I would think we could come up with Bill Clinton or someone and how about some good entertainment like Willy Nelson or Neil Young.
