It's some weird stuff going on in front of wall street and no media outlet is covering it.

1. It's Anonymous, full media blackout and twitter hash tag removal.

It's some freaky stuff. There is another thread here on DU with a live stream link, you cannot really tell whats going on though. Very weird!

[mfcorey1]

2. Anonymous cut in on the broadcast and made a speech. Really strange.

3. The words "full media blackout" make my blood run cold. nt

[cali]

24. there is not a full media blackout. I just posted an ABC article about it.

[RZM]

8. I don't know who's covering it now, but Fox and CNN both talked about it yesterday

The Fox piece is essentially opinion - it aired on that slapdash thing they threw together to cover Glenn Beck's time slot:

The CNN piece is from the money section on their website. Don't know if it actually aired on the network:

9. Delete. Wrong spot n/t

4. It's inconvenient for the media to cover news on the weekend.

So it seems.

6. Yea, this is actually some really scary stuff. Who's really in control?

It's certainly not for the people by the people.

Uhh Shivers.....

10. K & R and for a visit to the site when

My youtube ability is restored.

Thank you for posting.

[Fire Walk With Me]

11. If the media report it, others may wish to join in. Those who own the media don't want that.

[RZM]

12. ABC has something on it now online

http://abcnews.go.com/blogs/headlines/2011/09/protesters-begin-effort-to-occupy-wall-street/

I think more outlets will get on board as the day goes by. If something happens or its starts to get rowdy down there, they all will.

[bayareamike]

13. The people that have been interviewed have no idea

what they're talking about. I've only seen multiple Ron Paul supporters interviewed and people who are mad but offer no alternative. And then a few anarchists. :banghead:

[malaise]

14. M$Greedia believe if they ignore it it will go away

Amazing

[Firebrand Gary]

15. If you watch the live feed, you get the feeling the MSM cannot make this go away.

[malaise]

16. I can see that

Just saw a V mask LOL

[Firebrand Gary]

18. I busted up laughing too, so funny!

[malaise]

23. MLK and Olbermann

:D

[RZM]

17. CBS now on it too

http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2011/09/17/national/main20107772.shtml

[Firebrand Gary]

21. Nice job CBS!

I'd love to see this now get some live television attention, this story has very long legs.

[Life Long Dem]

19. Because Wall street points it's finger at Obama.

And this would show the people pointing their finger at Wall street. Same as when the Republicans blame Obama for everything when the Republicans in congress won't pass anything.

[Manifestor_of_Light]

20. Stupid question about Wall Street:

What is the closed building at the end of the street where the George Washington Statue is located on the steps?
Is that an old Federal Reserve bank or what?

[TomClash]

25. It's Federal Hall

That's where this country's First Presidential Inauguration was held. It's at the corner of Wall and Nassau Streets.

[sixmile]

22. Why not do this when the markets are open?

Whose idea was it to protest on a Saturday when all the 'players' are in the Hamptons?

[starroute]

26. This is only Day 1

They'll be there on Monday.
